Interesting, sounds like a tablet controller with a builtin 3D camera than can work as a Kinect replacement.

Does no one ever read these patents before posting? It's a system designed to scan real world 3D objects into the digital world, not a tablet...

The 3DS has a stereoscopic camera, not volumetric data acquisition...

I have thought for some time that cameras being so cheap would be a good way to provide extra functionality to tablets. It's just the additional cost of processing power to decipher the data. Though with multiple cores being common on phones and tablets I don't think it's a problem that can't be overcome. Not quite the way I imagined it though.



I hate people who dig up this stupid shit, patents don't mean anything but the sad thing is that stupid people think it does



Apple will find a way to sue them over this name.
