There is no doubt that higher -speed mobile networks such as 3G and 4G brings a wealth of mobile Internet eras. However, in addition to the network transmission channel, there is an important technical cornerstone that laid the entire mobile Internet world, which is the IMU (inertia measurement unit) with gyroscope.

The application of technologies such as gyroscopes and inertia navigation makes the phone no longer just the terminal of information receiving and receiving, but also the key sensor describing everyone's "who, where is, what is doing".

Starting from the iPhone 4, the use of gyroscope calibration and measurement position and motion data has become the standard for the entire smart device industry, including mobile phones. This standard has played in the hands of the Chinese. From wearable devices to smart homes, to drones and outdoor robots, it is a breakthrough in applications above IMU cornerstone.

However, the ceiling of the gyroscope has arrived. Lack of data with more dimensions and lack of more accurate data, making the gyroscope embarrassing in the fields of VR, robotics and other fields that require higher accuracy. Camsense founder Christopher, who died for more than ten years, has found black technology that is more suitable for accurate positioning than IMU.

The active optical positioning technology of computer vision is to break the gyroscope ceiling and bring the next application revolution. Christopher, and Camsense he founded, has launched an impact on the pioneers of this wave again and again. In the office of Shenzhen Nanshan Zhiyuan, Christopher used a gaming gun (shooting game handle) and a helmet to demonstrate the "second half" he would bring.

Christopher graduated from Tsinghua in 2003 and learned image processing and computer vision. It was originally the most cutting -edge black technology, but when the technical environment was not mature in the early 21st century, it became a dragon. Christopher changed his career and went to Bell Lab to develop WCDMA. The communications industry made rapid progress at the time, and Christopher returned to China before dawn in the 3G era to develop products in China.

In the 3G era, Christopher's specialized image processing and computer vision technology finally had a place of use. He and his friends worked with a system of systems that captured and monitoring sports data through cameras. The client was the gyms that blossomed all over the way.

In 2014, computer vision finally drove onto the highway. Under the wave of intelligent hardware, investment people with a keen sense of smell have begun to deploy darker technology algorithms and sensor technology. VR waves and smart home waves urge people to forge ahead. Christopher has a lot of martial arts who are preparing to go out of Guan to do something. Christopher established Camsense, ready to first position the computer visual space positioning technology of the most home. He first aimed at the "occupation living room" strategy of large companies.

Coincidentally, the most eager company that was originally sought after by Camsense was qvod. The QVOD large -screen business department originally had a series of big moves in early 2014. I hope to establish a living room entertainment ecosystem through the QVOD box. Through investment and technical support, various content and consumer tools are accepted one after another. Camsense's technology The landing has become the interactive terminal of the big screen game, and it is also among the cooperation list. After less than half a year, the term QVOD has become history.

Qvod's sudden fall brought the first crisis to Camsense, which was just founded. The creation of CAMSENSE was in a state of "guaranteed" -theqvod capital strength. At that time, it was full of ambitions for entertainment in the living room, and it was particularly optimistic about Christopher's technology. It can be said that if it was smooth at the time, it was able to grow up quickly with QVOD's order CAMSENSE. In the first few months of Camsense, it also planned R & D progress and design business in accordance with the situation of QVOD.

However, this greenhouse was broken overnight. Be surprised, Camsense has experienced several difficult nights for sleeping for this.

In July 2014, Camsense found the true first customer after QVOD: Skyworth.

Skyworth's order does save Camsense. However, it is not smooth sailing. CAMSENSE develops a single -eye visual positioning shooting game peripheral (pistol handle) by Skyworth as a gift for consumers to buy TV. But the shooting game that can actually run on Skyworth TV is very limited. Camsense even developed the first -person shooting game to Skyworth.

On the other hand, using Camsense products as gifts means that Skyworth is not serious about what to do in the living room entertainment. For Skyworth, the sales of TVs are first. The game on the TV is a promotional "gift" for Skyworth.

For Camsense, Skyworth provides orders at a critical moment. Of course, it is good, but Skyworth is not a fertile soil that Camsense can grow up. Camsense can neither obtain users from Skyworth nor can developers. Whether Camsense's products really play a role in selling Skyworth TV, it is impossible to consider it.

Camsense's pistol handle is different from most products on the market. Camsense put the camera on the muzzle of the "pistol". And usually install a camera at the top of the TV, Camsense is installed with an infrared transceiver. Using this design, Camsense's "pistol" has obtained a wider range of activities than other visual capture peripherals. Its computing unit is built into the handle, and the plan that uses infrared signals to directly exchange the operation results with the television receiving terminal. It is also in 2014 when the Bluetooth peripherals are full of the streets.

Christopher has given full play to the advantages of its team on the algorithm. Using infrared solutions, not only do you need to set the IMU at all, but also the problem of interference and packet loss of Bluetooth signal, but also use the algorithm to solve the problem of small infrared signal transmission data and easy to be visible light interference. The avenue is simple, Camsense's low cost, high response, and no delay in the industry in the first generation of products on Skyworth, which has left a deep impression on the industry.

In January 2015, LeTV came to the door. Camsense finally found the first -level engine to take off.

Compared to Skyworth, LeTV is much more advanced in Internet thinking. At that time, LeTV was working on "ecology". Camsense's technology original and product landing capabilities left a deep impression on LeTV. LeTV proposed that Camsense developed a new set of shooting gamepad for LeTV TV. LeTV not only provides sales channels for Camsense, but also helps Camsense dock content and games. As a result, LeTV's "Super Gun King" was born.

LeTV Super Gun King has brought continuous growth income to Camsense. In 2015, Camsense bid farewell to the embarrassing start period. This has entered a new chapter.

For Camsense, the production of the gamepad is not the main business of Christopher. In Christopher's view, the algorithm and solution capabilities held by their team can greatly improve the performance of the shooting game handle and reduce costs. Moved. However, the space positioning and position tracking algorithm are widely used. Christopher began to try to develop more spatial positioning applications in the scene. The first company in the field of visual space positioning is undoubtedly Oculus.

The first company in the field of visual space positioning is undoubtedly Oculus.

Oculus's main business is indeed virtual reality, but while developing a helmet, Oculus has also developed its own space positioning. The active optical positioning system Oculus Constellation ("constellation"). The "Constellation" system uses infrared cameras to capture and position the Oculus Rift helmet with infrared lights hidden as the mark point. Compared to the laser positioning technology used in HTC, and Sony's "three -axis gyroscope+visible light" positioning technology, this technical route of Oculus is the bank that Christopher has studied.

Christopher developed the product of Camsense code M2 in 2016 (M1 is LeTV's super gun king). To be precise, M2 is a solution, including a VR helmet shell with infrared lights, and a monocular camera with computing power.

Christopher's solution has attracted great attention in a small technology circle. In the VR field, most of the domestic development space positioning technology, most of them follow the technical route of Sony PS VR -experienced the boom of intelligent hardware, especially wearable devices, and the IMU of the multi -axis sensor. There are many, tracking the technical threshold similar to a single VR target of PS VR is also much lower; a small number of companies are also playing with laser positioning used by HTC, which is accurate but expensive. The ability to develop infrared -based active optical positioning technology can also control costs, only Camsense in China.

Christopher sent Camsense's M2 to a domestic Internet giant for technical testing. Their test method is quite interesting. It uses an Epson six -axis robotic arm to fix the VR helmet on the robotic arm, and compares the readings captured by the positioning system according to the readings of the positioning system.

As a result, Camsense's M2 is 10%higher than the positioning system of Oculus.

In 2016, the market competition of most technical solutions has passed the stage of "people without self" and entered a state of "people have me excellence". Large companies and large platforms that need to be applied have focused on the reliability, accuracy of technology, and the feasibility of landing to products and business.

During CamSensem1, Christopher's technical strength is not enough to show the mountains. After all, the positioning signal transmitted by the game handle is accurate or not easy to be perceived. And the shooting game handle is not like the product of black technology.

However, when there were several times in the industry report in the industry, there were several times after the decimal point, and the energy of Christopher really began to outbreak.

In 2016, Christopher visited COMAC with M2. This company carrying the dream of a large domestic aircraft put forward a demand that is completely the opposite of the robotic arm test method -they hope to get a set of position capture and monitoring system to determine the robotic arm movement and displacement on the assembly production line are accurate of. Moreover, I hope that this system will greatly reduce costs while ensuring accuracy. If the readings of high -precision robotic arm are prevailed, the position tracking of Christopher is accurate and reliable, then in turn, it is also feasible to determine the accuracy of large -scale robotic arm processing workpieces to determine the accuracy of large -scale robotic arm processing workpieces.

Christopher has opened up Camsense's industrial technology business line. Provide a monitoring system for large -scale use of automated production factories.

Christopher put forward a third -class rocket statement on Camsense's future: If in 2015, Camsense achieved the first time with LeTV’s assistance, LeTV TV and home games are Camsense's first rocket engine, and then Camsense will also The two -stage rocket engine -the second -level rocket Christopher is optimistic about the VR field, while the third -level rocket is a "plug-and-play" module.

In the field of VR, Christopher has just received HTC Chairman Wang Xuehong in the Camsense office. As soon as HTC announced in December 2016, he announced that he had cooperated with the Shenzhen Municipal Government to set up a VR Research Institute and VR Investment Fund, and visited Camsense. After HTC's spatial positioning partner Valve "open" Light House, the industry did suggest that HTC might develop or find a more controllable spatial positioning partner to ensure HTC Vivi technical moat. Camsense has obviously entered HTC's vision.

Will HTC be the second-level rocket of Camsense? Christopher admits "I don't know." HTC's feedback to Christopher was "Wang Dong is very interested" and urged Christopher to send a set of samples for testing.

Christopher will be exhibited with VR manufacturers at the CES in January 2017. Christopher makes M2 into a standardized shell that can assemble with the VR helmet in the factory. Most VR all -in -one manufacturers can integrate with the M2 system of Camsense on the hardware without any process adjustment. The location tracking of the camera with accurate space positioning capabilities -this is more reliable than the previous VR all -in -one machine only by the gyroscope and inertia navigation.

In the "second -level rocket", Christopher has been fully prepared to take off. Compared with LeTV, when LeTV came to the door, Camsense's team strength, productization ability, and understanding of business business have already taken another step. Christopher even calculates his mentor of Tsinghua University, domestic computational optics, 3D reconstruction.
