aeroTAP solution consist of Palm tracking Touchless Interface and 3D Sensor using unique Stereo Vision 3D sensors developed by nextEDGE Technology K.K.
In particular, the aeroTAP touchless interface is an unprecedented interface designed as an interface.
Stereo vision type 3D sensors are expected to be used in many new technological fields and we will support the use for their applications.
Minimum resource consumption
aeroTAP is a interface to connect a person and a device. The role for interface is to support the main figure such as the application. aeroTAP Evolution is designed to keep the resource consumption such as CPU of the computer as low as possible with an effective performance. It also provides intuitive touchless operation according to the type of content you use.
"Make it touchless with aeroTAP..."
It is no longer needed to develop an exclusive application for touchless operation and you can transfer the same application you have already been using to touchless.
The resource consumption, which we recently measured, decreased compared to the previous results, while the performance increased. For example, Intel i3 CPU is 5%-10%, Intel i7 CPU is below 5%. In the idle state, Intel i3 is below 5% It can also be used with stick PCs and tablet PCs.
Simple operation and gesture definition
In addition to operation with mouse and keyboard, interface assistant features which will help you operate the application more easily and intuitively.
■ SideIn gesture will provide switching/closing applications or loading specific applications more easily.
■ Virtual button will make operation much easier.
■ Virtual scrollbar enables you to operate scroll up/down, zoom in/out action with one hand.
■ Palm gesture, Rotate, Flip and Tap and Drag will make intuitive action.
■ Web contents such as HTML/JavaScript
■ 3D Contents/VR contents developed by Unity
■ Touch Panel based application
■ Others. makes more easy access to existing applications

aeroTAP 3D USB camera can scrape real time stereo images and depth images. aeroTAP can attach multiple 3D camera at the same time without putting extra load on CPU. It is available for IoT device, development of digital contents, real time 3D reconstruction and development of touchless interface.
About development environment
To make an existing application touchless using aeroTAP Evolution, you can do so without changing the application.
When using 3D point cloud data on Windows OS, use SDK or OpenNI2 driver which are both free of charge.
For Linux (Ubuntu, Raspberry Pi2/3), please use the sample code.

Kit contents:
|
 |
| Projector Head and Mount part can be separated. Due to integrate to other system by a nut. Important: The head and the mount of the camera is firmly set together. Important: Damage as a result of reformation by user will not be guaranteed. |
 |
| The USB power converter switch to toggle USB power can be disassembled and directly connected to 3V power such as GPIO to control. Important: Connector terminal is not compatible with GPIO connector so you will have to convert it. Important: Damage as a result of development will not be guaranteed. |
