Will New 3-D Imaging Technology Negate iRobot’s LADAR Advantage?

Stanford University researchers are developing a new 3-D digital imaging sensor that does not require lasers and can some day be fit into a device as small as a cell phone, Digital Journal reports. Robotics is named as a specific application, due to the need for robots to gain depth perception (Editor’s note: This is particularly useful for such applications as autonomous and semi-autonomous driving, and, in the future, attacking targets on the battlefield with precision). iRobot recently secur
