Abstract: There is provided a detection apparatus including a housing that includes a working surface, and a sensor configured to detect the force or the moment exerted on the working surface, on at least a first detection axis and a second detection axis. The working surface coincides with a surface that includes the first detection axis and the second detection axis, the working surface being at least partially symmetrical around the first detection axis passing through the center of the sensor.

Abstract: Parallax views of objects are used to generate 3D depth maps of the objects using time of flight (TOF) information. In this way, the deleterious effects of multipath interference can be reduced to improve 3D depth map accuracy without using computationally intensive algorithms.

Abstract: Machine learning is applied to both 2D images from an infrared imager imaging laser reflections from an object and to the 3D depth map of the object that is generated using the 2D images and time of flight (TOF) information. In this way, the 3D depth map accuracy can be improved without increasing laser power or using high resolution imagers.

Abstract: Provided is a phase difference calculation device including a first light amount acquisition unit that acquires a first light amount of reflected light of light applied in a first time window and received in the first time window and a second light amount of the reflected light received in a second time window, a time window shift control unit that shifts the first and second time windows and a third time window in the negative direction of the time axis to set fourth, fifth, and sixth time windows, and shifts the fourth, fifth, and sixth time windows in the negative direction of the time axis until no reflected light is received in the fourth time window, a second light amount acquisition unit that acquires a third light amount of the reflected light received in the sixth time window, and a phase difference calculation unit that calculates a phase difference between the light and the reflected light on the basis of a first corrected light amount obtained by adding the third light amount to the first light amount and a second corrected light amount obtained by subtracting the third light amount from the second light amount.
