Patent attributes
The present disclosure is directed to an adaptable depth sensing (DS) system. A DS device may comprise a DS equipment module and a control module. The control module may configure the operational mode of the DS equipment module for close-range sensing, mid-range sensing or long-range sensing. The control module may receive at least depth data from the DS equipment module for determining the mode of operation. The control module may also receive condition data regarding the DS device and/or a host device to which the DS device is coupled, determine a configuration based on the condition data, and may utilize the condition data along with the depth data to configure the DS equipment module. Configuring the DS equipment module may comprise, for example, enabling components within the DS equipment module, configuring focus for the components, configuring image orientation for the components and/or selecting a DS methodology for the components.
