Which technology is behind intel's realsense depth sensor?

Is it a structured light or ToF approach?

Where can I find specs?

At least for the front-facing camera, it seems to be structured light.

The IR Laser Projector on the Intel RealSense F200 camera sends non visible patterns (coded light) onto the object. The reflected patterns are captured by the IR camera and processed by the ASIC which assigns depth values to each pixel to create a depth video frame.

Applications see 2 (depth and color) video streams. The ASIC syncs depth with color stream (texture mapping) using UVC time stamp and generates data flags for each depth value (valid, invalid, or motion detected.)

You might be able to find some more information on the RealSense Website

As far as specs go, this is all I could find: Full VGA depth resolution 1080p RGB camera 0.2 – 1.2 meter range (Specific algorithms may have different range and accuracy) USB 3.0 interface
