If you've been on vacation even once in the last four years, you've seen it:
tourists whipping out awkward tablets with sub-par cameras to capture what
can only be the worst photographs. Tablets aren't known for their stellar
imaging capabilities, but Dell and Intel's next joint effort may change that
, at least to some degree. During this morning's Intel Developer Forum
keynote, Michael Dell and Intel CEO Brian Krzanich will preview a new tablet
the world's thinnest tablet. It's also the first device to feature Intel
RealSense - a photo technology that creates a depth map within every image
it takes. Krzanich gave me a quick preview of the device before today's
keynote.

True to Dell's word, the new Venue 8 7000 is very thin. It's svelte profile
leaves it feeling very light in the hand, though Krzanich was unable to tell
me its exact weight. The CEO says he's been testing the tablet out for a
few months now, and he's become quite fond of it. It's not hard to see why -
- it's a light, comfortable device to use ...though Intel's RealSense camera
module does leave it looking a little unbalanced. The bevy of camera
sensors takes up residence on the device's left side, embedded in a large
speaker bar that gracing the tablet's same end. It gives the device an
obvious place to grip without covering the screen, but lacks the symmetry of
dual-speaker devices like the HTC One or NVIDIA Shield.
Still, it's easy to excuse the visual imbalance for the sake of the
RealSense camera's capabilities. Krzanich fired up his tablet's camera app
to show off the camera's depth mapping capabilities, beckoning me to touch
the screen and drag between two points. This caused the app to draw a line
under my finger, actively measuring the distance between the points.
Krzanich says the camera can map a depth of several meters, and anything
within that range can be accurately measured by the Venue 8 7000's onboard
software. The app will also have refocus and filtering technology, and Intel
hopes that it will spark new ideas in the minds of developers.
Details on the Dell Venue 8 7000 (and the long-term implications of
RealSense) are still scarce, but in the few minutes I spent with the tablet
impressed. | a*****g 发帖数: 19398 | 2 不错啊
