Abstract
In one aspect the invention provides a time of flight camera data processing system incorporating a management processor structure capable of communicating configuration information to and/or from a waveform generator used by the time of flight camera. A depth circuit structure is also provided which is configured to receive raw image frame data supplied by a sensor of the time of flight camera, the raw image frame data defining an array of pixels. The depth circuit structure is configured to translate the raw image frame data of one or more pixels into complex components, and the management processor structure being configured to communicate configuration information and/or to issue operational instructions to the depth circuit structure. The depth circuit structure is arranged to output distance and amplitude information derived from at least one received raw image data frame.
