Micron pixel smartphone image sensor for selfie cameras
OmniVision Technologies has announced in advance of CES the OV32B image sensor, featuring a 0.7 micron pixel size to provide 32 megapixel (MP) resolution in a 1/3” optical format. This enables smartphone designers to offer the highest possible front-facing, selfie camera resolution in the limited space available.
Smartphone image sensor with de-noise technology
OmniVision Technologies has announced, in advance of CES, the OV40A, a 40MP, 1.0 micron pixel image sensor that features super high gain and de-noise technologies for low light camera performance in the 1/1.7” optical format. This sensor also offers multiple high dynamic range (HDR) options for the best quality still and video captures.
Image sensor for IoT security cameras with Nyxel NIR
OmniVision Technologies has announced in advance of CES the OS04C10, the two micron pixel, four megapixel (MP) resolution image sensor for both IoT and home security cameras. When paired with the designer’s selected platform, the OS04C10 can enable a system ultra low power mode for battery-powered cameras with AI functionality.
Collaboration solution on dual-mode camera applications
OmniVision Technologies, Ambarella, and Smart Eye, have announced in advance of AutoSens Detroit a complete solution for dual-mode camera applications in the automotive industry. This joint solution simultaneously monitors drivers while capturing vehicle occupants for one-way videoconferencing.
OV64A image sensor with large optical format
OmniVision Technologies has announced the OV64A image sensor, offering 64 megapixel (MP) resolution with the largest pixel size in its class, at 1.0 micron, along with a class-leading optical format of 1/1.34”. Its large optics and high resolution provide premium low light performance for the wide and ultrawide main cameras in high end smartphones.
OmniVision medical RGB-IR image sensor reduces endoscope size
OmniVision Technologies has announced the OH02A1S, an medical RGB-IR image sensor, which provides simultaneous white-light RGB captures and infrared monochrome captures in a single CMOS sensor. While endoscopic precancer and cancer detection procedures are performed using IR light, surgeons also need RGB light to confirm any abnormalities detected using infrared.
OmniVision viewing camera solution to provide 140dB HDR and LED flicker mitigation
OmniVision has announced a joint solution that is optimised to provide high quality images for rear-view cameras (RVCs), surround-view systems (SVS) and e-mirrors. This viewing camera solution includes OmniVision’s OX03C10, which combines a large 3.0 micron pixel, high dynamic range (HDR) of 140dB for minimised motion artifacts, and high LED flicker mitigation (LFM) performance.
OmniVision full HD image sensor for security cameras
OmniVision has announced the OS02G10 security image sensor, which provides the best value for mainstream, high-volume security cameras requiring 1080p resolution and excellent low-light pixel performance.
Automotive image sensor for low-light performance
OmniVision Technologies has announced the expansion of its Nyxel near-infrared (NIR) technology into the automotive market with the new 2.5 megapixel OX03A2S automotive image sensor. This ASIL-B sensor is ideal for exterior imaging applications that operate in low to no ambient light conditions within two meters of the vehicle.
Automotive SoC for entry-level rearview cameras
OmniVision Technologies has announced its 1.3MP OX01E10 SoC, providing automotive designers with imaging performance for entry-level rearview cameras (RVC) across a wide range of challenging lighting conditions, along with the most compact form factor and lowest power consumption.
Tiny optical format sensor for smartphone cameras
OmniVision Technologies has announced the OV64B, a 64 megapixel (MP) image sensor with a 0.7 micron pixel size, enabling 64 MP resolution in a 1/2” optical format for smartphone cameras. This optical format sensor allows high end and high mainstream smartphone designers to create the thinnest possible phones with high resolution 64 MP cameras.
Near-infrared CMOS image sensors for no ambient light
OmniVision Technologies has announced Nyxel 2, the second generation of its revolutionary near-infrared (NIR) technology for image sensors that operate in low to no ambient light conditions. Despite launching the first generation more than two years ago, competing mass-produced CMOS image sensors are still failing to achieve comparable NIR performance.
Two megapixel 12” wafer-based image sensor
OmniVision Technologies has announced the latest member of its two megapixel (MP) image sensor family, the OV02B. OmniVision is using 12’’ wafers to produce this sensor, instead of the eight inch wafers that are in tight supply but are typically used for 2MP sensors. This enables the company to better address the increasing demand for 2MP in the entry level and mainstream smartphone and tablet markets.
Image sensor with stacked die tech brings 4K performance
OmniVision Technologies has announced the OV64C, its first 64 megapixel (MP) image sensor featuring a 0.8 micron pixel size to enable high resolution smartphone cameras in a 1/1.7" optical format. Built on OmniVision’s PureCel Plus stacked die technology, this sensor provides leading edge still image capture and exceptional 4K video performance with electronic image stabilisation (EIS) for high end smartphones.
Image sensor provides high dynamic range for smartphones
OmniVision Technologies has announced the OV48C, a 48MP image sensor with a large 1.2 micron pixel size to enable high resolution and low light performance for smartphone cameras. The OV48C is an image sensor for high resolution mobile cameras with on-chip dual conversion gain HDR, which eliminates motion artifacts and produces an excellent signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).
High-efficiency video coding compression processor at CES
OmniVision Technologies has announced in advance of CES the OA805, a video processor that supports high-efficiency video coding (HEVC) compression with the lowest power consumption in the industry. The interest in HEVC (also known as H.265) for IoT-enabled home security devices is growing rapidly.
Megapixel automotive image sensors with LED flicker mitigation
OmniVision Technologies has announced the first two members of its new automotive image sensor platform, the 8MP, front-view OX08A and OX08B. The high-resolution OX08A utilises a HDR, while the pinout-compatible OX08B adds high quality LED flicker mitigation (LFM) performance, enabled by the sensor’s on-chip HALE (HDR and LFM engine) combination algorithm.
Lightguide-integrated sensor for improved optical performance
OmniVision Technologies has announced the OV7251-2B global shutter image sensor, which provides shutter efficiency of 99.96% for machine vision applications that need crisp captures of objects in motion to avoid inaccurate decisions. Additionally, these applications typically operate in difficult lighting conditions.
OmniVision receives Guinness World Record for small image sensor
OmniVision has announced from MD&M Minneapolis that its OV6948 is the winner of the Guinness World Record for 'The Smallest Image Sensor Commercially Available' with its size of 0.575x0.575mm. Derived from this ultra small imager, the company also announced its OVM6948 CameraCubeChip - a fully packaged, wafer-level camera module measuring 0.65x0.65mm, with a z-height of just 1.158mm.
