Today, pmdtechnologies ag is announcing the next generation of its 3D Time-of-Flight Development Kit, the “flexx2”.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20220112005533/en/
Working in Partnership with Emcraft Systems, a California based provider of hardware and software solutions for embedded applications, the flexx2 has been upgraded from the market-leading “PicoFlexx” to deliver even better depth-sensing performance with 38,000 3D pixels and a 56 x 44 degree Field-of-View, all in the size of a pack of chewing gum at 72.1mm x 19.2mm x 10.2mm.
The VCSEL emitter has been upgraded from 850-nanometer to 940-nanometer wavelength to further increase sunlight robustness and outdoor performance. Additionally the USB-A port was replaced by a more robust USB 3.0 type C port.
Multiple new built-in user modes allow precise measurements from as close as 10cm to as far as 4 meters in just a single frame rate. The flexx2 can run up to 60 frames per second, which is useful for algorithms requiring fast capture such as gesture control.
The flexx2 comes with pmd’s market leading software development kit (SDK) “Royale”, and will be code compatible with the previous PicoFlexx. Royale supports popular programming extensions including Matlab, OpenCV, and ROS 1 + 2.
“The flexx2 builds on the success of the now-discontinued “PicoFlexx”, that already brought pmd’s 3D depth-sensing technology to the hands of thousands of developers worldwide”, says Mitchell Reifel, Vice President of pmdtechnologies Inc. “Countless exciting and industry-changing projects are built upon the flexibility and reliability of the 3D Development Kits and make use of the high-quality depth data from Infineon’s IRS2381C REAL3™ Time-of-Flight Image Sensor and pmd’s powerful SDK” he adds.
As an additional option of flexibility, the flexx2 is available in two versions: as an encased, certified Development Kit for prototyping and development, and as an uncased OEM module for high-volume production.
The new flexx2 can be pre-ordered at pmdtec.com/en/pmd-3d-sensing-family/ starting today, with shipments beginning in February.

- Zynyz® (retifanlimab) in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel (platinum-based chemotherapy) is the first systemic treatment for adult patients with advanced SCAC in Europe- The EC approval is based on results of the POD1UM-303 study which showed that adult patients with advanced SCAC achieved significantly improved progression-free survival with Zynyz in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel as a first-line treatment compared to chemotherapy alone.1 Incyte (Nasdaq:INCY) today announced that the European Commission (EC) has approved Zynyz® (retifanlimab) in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel (platinum-based chemotherapy) for the first-line treatment of adult patients with metastatic or with inoperable locally recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of the anal canal (SCAC). “The EC approval of Zynyz marks an important step forward for patients with advanced SCAC, a rare cancer for which meaningful treatment advances have not occurred in several decades,” said Bill Meur
Dfns Launches Payouts6.3.2026 21:27:00 CET | Press release
Dfns today announced the launch of Payouts, a new API enabling institutions to convert stablecoins to fiat and route payouts across multiple bank accounts while keeping wallet-level governance and controls in place. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260305327930/en/ Convert stablecoins to fiat and settle payouts to bank accounts in 94 countries, today. Solving the problem of single-rail off-ramps Today, most fintechs and institutions still hard-wire a single payout provider into their stack, or rely on vertically integrated models that bundle routing, pricing, custody, and settlement together. That approach may be convenient early on, but it creates structural problems at scale: weak price discovery because there is no competitive pressure on margins, limited auditability because routing decisions are opaque, and operational fragility because a single provider degradation in any corridor requires architectural i
