On May 10, the OPPO brand conducted a 5G video call demonstration using 3D structured light technology at the OPPO Research Institute in Shenzhen. The technical demonstration was completed on a custom-built OPPO R11s smartphone with an integrated structured light camera. Through the mobile phone's RGB and structured light camera, the subject color and 3D depth information are collected respectively, and then transmitted through 5G, and finally presented in real time on the remote display.
The demonstration of 5G video call technology brought by OPPO is not only the world's first, but also heralds the official arrival of the 5G era. OPPO's exploration of the high-speed characteristics of 5G will also successfully promote the entire industry to new applications in the 5G era.
It is true that although 4G networks have still become the mainstream of current communications, from the perspective of the development of the industry, 5G with high bandwidth, faster download speed and low latency can better meet the needs of users for mobile communications. To this end, OPPO, which has always been innovative, is also committed to the exploration and application of the characteristics of 5G high rate.
This time, OPPO's 5G video call using 3D structured light technology is to capture three-dimensional portrait information, and to achieve the restoration of three-dimensional portrait pictures by using QualcommTechnologies' 5G new air interface terminal prototype to receive the display at the remote end. In other words, OPPO combines 5G network technology with other new imaging and sensor technologies, and perfectly realizes the real-time synthesis of visual content in terminals and clouds by making full use of 5G high speed and low latency characteristics according to user needs. Therefore, OPPO has not only become the first brand of 5G scenario-based applications, but also OPPO's efforts in the commercialization of 5G mobile phones have become an important milestone in the industry.
In fact, OPPO has already taken the lead in 5G. In addition to becoming a 5G standard team, OPPO also docks with the organization of international labeling, and formally establishes the OPPO Research Institute, striving to comprehensively enhance the company's technological innovation and research capabilities, based on and beyond the needs of users to carry out core technology pre-research and reserves, and create technical conditions for the competitiveness of the company's future products.
Tang Hai, director of the Standards Research Center of OPPO Research Institute, said that OPPO not only actively participates in international standardization work and vigorously carries out the research and development of 5G products, in January this year, OPPO also announced the 5G pilot plan with QualcommTechnologies, and is committed to becoming the first terminal manufacturer to launch 5G mobile phones in 2019. Bai Jian, director of the Hardware Research Center of OPPO Research Institute, said that OPPO will realize the commercial use of 3D structured light technology in mobile phone products within 6 months, and bring the latest breakthrough technology achievements directly to consumers.
So, what kind of new experience will 3D structured light technology bring to users? Chen Yan, director of the Software Research Center of OPPO Research Institute, said that OPPO will realize breakthrough application scenarios including secure payment, three-dimensional reconstruction, AR and games for users in the future through 3D structured light technology, providing an unprecedented mobile experience and unlimited possibilities.
As the most fashionable young mobile phone brand, every model brought by OPPO is deeply loved and sought after by young users. To this end, OPPO already has more than 200 million users worldwide. This time, from OPPO's 5G video call demonstration using 3D structured light technology and the speech of the core leaders of OPPO Research Institute, it can be seen that OPPO may launch a new model to bring users the latest mobile phone experience. Let's wait and see.
