ASUS
recently announced two new smartphones: the ZenFone AR and ZenFone 3 Zoom. Each
phone has an array of cameras that provide advanced imaging features such as
simulated depth of field and augmented reality (AR).
The
ZenFone AR is the first smartphone that supports both Google’s Tango AR
technology and Daydream VR. Tango. The phone’s AR and imaging experiences are
enabled by ASUS’ TriCam system that combines a motion tracking camera, a depth
camera that’s paired with an infrared illuminator, and a 23MP Sony IMX318 Exmor
RS primary camera paired with an f/2.0 lens.
It also has 4-axis
OIS to help steady the camera during long exposures, a color spectrum sensor to
improve white balance accuracy, and a hybrid autofocus system that combines
dual-pixel phase detection (2PDAF), laser, and contrast based AF that should
provide good performance in a range of lighting conditions. ASUS claims the
camera can focus in as little as 0.03 seconds in ideal conditions.
The
world’s first Tango-enabled smartphone to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon
821 processor. It will also be the world’s first mobile device to be both
Tango-enabled and Daydream-ready. Tango is a set of sensors and computer vision
software that supports smartphone augmented reality experiences. Daydream is
Google's platform for high quality, mobile virtual reality. Asus Zenfone AR (32 GB): The
launching price of this variant will be Rs. 32,499, which is quite decent.
