3 SDV Systems ZCam Replace your Nintendo Wii which a camera (3DV Systems – ZCam) which recognizes your actions and gestures. How cool is that! 3DV Systems is a technology company with a vision for future and focused on next generation technologies.

3DV Systems have developed a technology which measures the depth of the objects in real time. This technology enables applications to capture object shapes in dynamically defined 3D Space.

What this technology means to a common man? This means the future of interacting with electronics is about to become really easy and effortless. We won’t require and IR enabled remote controls because the gadgets and electronics will begin to recognize your hand gestures and act accordingly.

This is what the company has to say about the future of the technology they have invented.

“3DV is currently focused on bringing the vision of next generation immersive man-machine interface come true in the worlds of gaming and web-conferencing, through introducing outstanding gesture recognition and personalization capabilities. At the same time, the company offers breakthrough solutions for the automotive-safety, security and robotics markets, based on the capability to detect objects (e.g. faces) at high precision and in changing environments.

Looking ahead, we see our video imaging technology playing a key role in shaping the interface of next-generation mobile devices and in the "Digital Home".”
