It's a time-of-flight 3D sensor using a custom CCD from Panasonic.

"The time delay between the LED emitters and the target reflected light is measured on a pixel by pixel basis.
The distance of the target is obtained and calculated by means of internal processing."

Features

1. Unique(laser-free)distance measuring methodology:

- Safe and non-invasive ?uses near-infrared LEDs and specially-designed CCD devices.

2. Excellent distance data resolution:

- Wide viewing angle,perfect for multiple motion detection ( 60 degrees on the horizontal plane)
- Selectable frame rates:15,20,25,30 frames/sec modes available.

3. Attractive design:

- Impressively small,light and compact.
