The market is dominated by Sony and Samsung, but others like Omnivision have more and more relevance and it is thanks to a job well done and good progress.
The latest novelty from this manufacturer concerns the phase detection focusing system. Omnivision presented a sensor that has Focusing capacity of the PDAF over its entire surface
100% surface work on focus
Omnivision’s new photographic sensor is called the OV50A and becomes the first in the world to incorporate phase detection focus across its entire surface. What are we talking about 100% of your pixels are matched by software
We are talking about a photographic sensor for mobile phones with 50 megapixels of total capacity and pixels of 1 micrometer on each side. Its size is 1 / 1.5 inches and it has PDAF focus, as we said, on 100% of its surface. This new design is called QPD and, as Omnivision indicates, it will carry “DSLR-level autofocus performance on smartphone cameras
“One of the main selling points for mobile phones is camera performance, and the gap has been closed with digital SLR cameras over the years. Our QPD autofocus technology is now expanding. this gap.
Omnivision’s new QPD focus, integrated with its new OV50A sensor, provides better distance calculation, better sensor performance in low light and improved autofocus speed.
