A three-dimensional depth perception apparatus includes a synchronized trigger module, an MIPI receiving/transmitting module, and a multiplexing core computing module, a storage controller module, a memory, and an MUX selecting module. The synchronized trigger module is for generating a synchronized trigger signal transmitted to an image acquiring module; the MIPI receiving/transmitting module is for supporting input/output of the MIPI video streams and other formats of video streams; the multiplexing core computing module is for selecting a monocular structured or a binocular structured light depth perception working mode. The apparatus flexibly adopts a monocular or binocular structured-light depth sensing manner, so as to leverage the advantages of different modes: the MIPI in, MIPI out working manner is nearly transparent to the user, so as to facilitate the user to employ the apparatus, directly obtaining the depth graph.
