The system works by firing rapid femtosecond laser pluses. There are so short that they are measured in quadrillionths of a second. The way that this camera sees is that a laser light bounces of a wall. Some of the light hits the person and scatters this allows the camera to see the full body of a person.

The Smart Shopping Cart
The Smart Shopping Car t has imbued itself with puppy like brains via Windows 8 tablet and vision via Xbox Kinect setup. That means that you can upload your shopping cart list and then walk around as the shopping cart follows you. As you place items in the cart, you scan their bar codes. The tablet ticks each item off your list and alerts you if you accidentally grab the wrong item. Best of all the Shopping Cart checks you out automatically when you're done no waiting necessary.
