I would like to know if there are any smartphones or tablets available with the RealSense camera. Is it possible to export my app using Unity and Intel RealSense SDK to an Android device? The Dell Venue device is an option? http://www.dell.com/us/p/dell-venue-8-7840-tablet/pd ;

Currently there is no such tablet or phone can run RealSense SDK. However, we do have plan to support in the near future. Please stay tuned.

Dear David Lu, thank you very much for the clarifications. I am developing apps using the RealSense SDK to help wheelchair users. If you have time, please take a look in these two videos to know better about my prototypes with the RealSense SDK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4BA36kOr-s&list=PLbfWbZgkTVavLC3_5VInsiDSUkHE5SmqS&index=7 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oataqXr1n-0&list=PLbfWbZgkTVavLC3_5VInsiDSUkHE5SmqS&index=8. Smaller devices with the RealSense technology would help a lot the confort for the wheelchair users. Thank you for your attention.

By the way, the projects mentioned above are being developed in Brazil. There are more than 20 million people with special needs in Brazil. My youtube channel about this app is the following: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbfWbZgkTVavLC3_5VInsiDSUkHE5SmqS. Thank you.

Half a year later: Has it become possible now to develop Unity apps using Realsense targeting Android devices?

For example for the Dell 7840, with world-facing stereo 720p Realsense cameras.

The Android SDK for RealSense is still forthcoming.  However, availability of Android mobiles with RealSense is getting closer.  Intel has released a reference design for manufacturers called Yellows II.  And of course, there is the new smaller version of the R200 camera that fits inside a smartphone casing.

It was also recently reported that manufacturer support for putting RealSense cameras in their devices is increasing.
