Lidar (ToF) has a wide range of applications in the field of consumer electronics, mainly including the following aspects:

Smartphone: It can achieve the function of calculating photography, helping the phone to measure the distance of objects more accurately, thereby optimizing the shooting effect, such as autofocus, background blurring, etc., improving the sense of hierarchy and clarity of photos. At the same time, it also supports AR function, which can more accurately perceive the position and distance of objects in the real environment, allowing users to have a more realistic augmented reality experience, such as AR games, AR navigation, etc.

Robot vacuum cleaner: By emitting laser beams and measuring the flight time of reflected light, a flat point cloud map of the room is constructed to achieve precise positioning and navigation, plan the optimal cleaning path, and detect obstacles in a timely manner to avoid them, improving cleaning efficiency and coverage, and avoiding collision damage to furniture or oneself.

Smart door lock: ToF LiDAR can be used for non-contact human body sensing and distance detection, achieving automatic unlocking or wake-up function. When the user approaches the door lock, the sensor detects the approach of the human body and automatically prepares to unlock, without manual operation, improving the convenience and safety of use.

AR/VR devices: capable of real-time measurement of the distance between users and objects in the surrounding environment, achieving interactive functions such as gesture recognition and wake-up, allowing users to naturally interact with virtual objects through gestures in the virtual world, enhancing immersion. It can also be used to detect the surrounding environment, prevent users from colliding with real objects, and ensure safe use.

Projector: Helps achieve fast and accurate focusing and keystone correction functions. By measuring the distance and angle between the projection surface and the projector, the projection image is automatically adjusted to present it quickly and clearly on the screen, without the need for users to manually adjust it, improving the user experience.

Service robots, such as home companion robots and commercial welcome robots, use ToF LiDAR to perceive the surrounding environment, navigate and avoid obstacles, enabling them to move flexibly in indoor and outdoor environments, accurately reach designated locations, and safely interact with people and other objects.
