The PrimeSensor Technology

PrimeSense is a fabless semiconductor company. Our technology empowers consumer electronic devices, such as TVs, set-top boxes, living-room PCs and more with natural interaction capabilities.

Our product, the PrimeSensor, contains the Reference Design and the NITE middleware.


The PrimeSensor Reference Design is a low-cost, plug and  play, USB-powered device that can either sit on top of or next to a television screen or a monitor, or be integrated into them. The Reference Design generates realtime depth, color and audio data of the living room scene. It works in all room lighting conditions (whether in complete darkness or in a fully lit room). It does not require the user to wear or hold anything, does not require calibration and does not require computational resources from the host’s processor.


The PrimeSensor design includes an advanced visual data processing middleware optimized for mass-market CE products called NITE™. NITE provides the algorithmic framework for the development of rich natural interaction applications. The NITE SDK is built to match GUI design and development on one hand, and games development on the other, by providing a fully documented API and framework.




PrimeSense’s product portfolio contains the PrimeSensor Reference Design, PrimeSense SoC, which acts as the backend SoC for the entire system, as well as a 3D data generation unit, optical element and NITE processing middleware.


The PrimeSense SoC contains a highly parallel computational logic designed by PrimeSense that calculates the depth value of every pixel, based on the signal from a standard CMOS sensor. In addition, the PrimeSense SoC contains interfaces for a color CMOS sensor, integrated ADCs, USB with integrated USB PHY and a controller for running the firmware, thus providing flexible and upgradable system control. NITE translates raw visual data, such as depth and color, into meaningful application commands.

准确，但是这是以色列公司的原型技术参数，未必就是natal的最终参数

pdf里就是这些数据
