The Persee+ 3D camera is the 2nd generation for the camera-computer line developed by Orbbec. The SoC (System on Chip) features Orbbec’s Astra 3D+ camera and a built-in ARM processor optimized for artificial intelligence and machine learning applications.

The Persee+ 3D camera implements the Amlogic A311D as its processor unit. The smart vision SoC (System on Chip) features 4x ARM A73 cores and 2x ARM A53 cores in addition to an NPU enhanced for AI/ML applications.

The Persee+ includes Orbbec’s Astra+ 3D structured light camera which is optimized for long-raged use cases (0.6-8m). Its max RGB resolution is 1920×1080 pixels @30fps and its max depth resolution is 640×480 pixels @30FPS.

Other upgrades include an upgraded memory and storage support (4GB RAM & 32GB eMMC). The device also offers  RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0 support. According to Orbbec, the Persee+ can be plugged into a TV/Monitor (via HDMI) or it can be used without a display through the built-in Astra+ 3D camera.
