The OV48C is the industry’s first image sensor for high resolution mobile cameras with on-chip dual conversion gain HDR, which eliminates motion artifacts and produces an […]
4K video processor sports low power consumption, HEVC Compression for security and surveillance apps
OmniVision Technologies, Inc. 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. This advanced video compression standard reduces storage requirements and enables the streaming of 4K […]
First 8.3-MP image sensors feature LED flicker mitigation, 140 dB dynamic range
OmniVision Technologies, Inc. announced the first two members of its new automotive image sensor platform—the 8MP, front-view OX08A and OX08B. The high-resolution OX08A features the automotive industry’s best HDR, while the pinout-compatible OX08B adds a new benchmark in LED flicker mitigation (LFM) performance, enabled by the sensor’s on-chip HALE (HDR and LFM engine) combination algorithm. The […]
Compact medical camera module boasts fast frame rate, 640k resolution
OmniVision Technologies, Inc. announced the OC0SA — the latest member of its growing family of CameraCubeChip wafer-level camera modules for medical applications. This new module offers a resolution of 800×800 with the highest frame rate of 60fps, or 400×400 resolution at 90fps, for blur-free images and video. Additionally, the OC0SA provides a compact size of […]
Pint-sized wafer-level camera module targets disposable medical applications
OmniVision Technologies, Inc. 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 0.575mm x 0.575mm. Derived from this ultra small imager, the company also announced its OVM6948 CameraCubeChip–a fully packaged, wafer-level camera module measuring 0.65mm x 0.65mm, with a z-height of just 1.158mm. OmniVision developed these innovative medical […]
Image sensor captures premium video with HDR, ultra-wide angles
OmniVision Technologies, Inc. announced the OV12D, a 1.4 micron 12 MP image sensor with selective conversion gain (SCG) for the optimum balance between low-light image quality and high dynamic range (HDR). The OV12D features a large 1/2.4” optical format, on-chip 4-cell remosaic color filter, high-speed phase-detection autofocus (PDAF) and extra pixels for 4K2K video electronic […]
Automotive SoC for rear and surround view cameras features low-light performance, low power, small size
OmniVision Technologies, Inc. announced from the AutoSens conference its 1.3MP OX01F10 SoC, providing automotive designers with the industry’s best imaging performance across a wide range of challenging lighting conditions, along with the most compact form factor and lowest power consumption.
