-====== 3D Time of Flight Rapid Prototyping Platform ======+====== AD-96TOF1-EBZ ======
  
-The 3D Imaging Time of Flight (ToF) system is designed to give users flexibility in applying the system in various use cases for technology evaluation and rapid prototyping for both hardware design and software developmentBuilt on industry standard 96Boards mezzanine specification it gives a small form factor that can be easily built into proof of concepts. Depending on customer preferences and development experience, different 96Boards processor boards can be used for overall system evaluation and custom development. Experienced 3rd Parties are also provided to help customize the design to individual needs.+=====Introduction===== 
 +The [[adi>en/design-center/evaluation-hardware-and-software/evaluation-boards-kits/AD-96TOF1-EBZ.html|AD-96TOF1-EBZ]] is a proven hardware platform for depth perception. When paired with a processor board from the 96Boards ecosystem or Raspberry Pi family, it can be used for 3D software and algorithm development. This modular platform can be used as a baseline to design a ToF system and will allow customers to start developing their software and algorithms while the hardware can be modified for their specific application. The solution has VGA resolution which means that objects can be detected to a higher level of granularity than other 3D ToF solutions, an ability to detect depth in strong ambient light conditions and multiple range detection modes for increased accuracy. A native and host SDK is provided. The SDK also provides OpenCV, Python®, MATLAB®, Open3D and RoS wrappers so that developers can use them to simplify application development.

 +**Laser Board**   
 +  * The laser board has 4 individual lasers with appropriate precision driver and power components for accurate firing of the lasers. 
 +  * The board is designed with the lasers positioned so that they fit around the AFE board CCD sensor when mated together. This position gives optimum performance for a wide range of use cases minimizing any effects of shadowing. 
 +  * It receives power and all control I/O through the interface connector. 
 +  * **[[./ad-96tof1-ebz/laserboard|Laser Board Design Files and Description]]** 
 + 
 +**AFE Board** 
 +  * The AFE board contains a Panasonic CCD Sensor combined with ADDI9036 TOF Signal Processor with necessary power and timing signal chains.  
 +  * Optics are fitted to the board using industry standard mounting adapters to give a wide field of view, but can be changed based on individual use cases. There is a threaded adapter for mechanical mounting on an optional tripod stand.

-The 3D ToF system will operate across industrial operating specifications. Objects up to 6m in distance can be detected, and the system comes with easy to use software stack to ensure optimal operation in the target environment. Laser operation complies with Class 1 safety operating requirements and the default operating frequency will be 940nm for improved use in challenging lighting conditions both indoor and outdoor. 
-  
-The system has options of USB, Ethernet or Wi-Fi to connect to a host computer, this flexibility enables evaluation across a wide range of use cases and environments. Sampling rates of up to 30fps are supported. Data is fed from the CCD Sensor to the DragonBoard 410c over MIPI-CSI interface. This data is read using V4L2 capture driver and in-turn either feeds it to native SDK or sends it to the Host SDK over Ethernet, WiFi and USB interfaces. Native/Host SDK provides this data to user applications for further use. For ease of application, the SDK also provides OpenCV, python and MATLAB wrappers such that developers can simply use these wrappers to develop application.
