The "Novel Depth Sensing and Facial Recognition System" developed by the Semiconductor Division at HHRI (Hon Hai Research Institute) and NYCU integrates nanophotonic technology with human-machine interaction sensing techniques. This technology miniaturizes depth sensing and facial recognition systems to a width of three hair strands, enabling more efficient and compact designs, such as eliminating smartphone notches. Its applications extend beyond smartphones to fields like robotics, augmented reality, and mixed reality. The system's advanced low-power imaging solutions address growing spatial computing needs, promising enhanced facial unlocking and more. This breakthrough has garnered global attention, with patents already granted in Taiwan and China.
