Does Analog Devices have solutions for mobile robots too like vision or navigation sensing?
Yes, we do. I went through some of those a little bit in the last webcast that I did, and we can focus on those some more in the next webcast. But to answer the question, yes, we do. We have lighter sensing inertial measurement units and 3D time of flights. If you take 3D time of flight, which can be used for localization and navigation or obstacle detection in autonomous guided vehicles and mobile robots, it provides depth perception and it's suitable for a short-range distance up to about 10 meters. There are many solutions out there. If you choose VGA resolution, that enables our customers to see objects to a better level of granularity than the other 3D time of flight solutions, and there is an ability to detect destined strong ambient light conditions. And we also have an algorithm for interference cancellation, even if multiple cameras are used with no connection between them.
