Sony introduced the world's first CMOS image sensor, which can reduce drive voltage and power consumption

Recently, Sony announced that it has developed the world's first sensor-applied IMX 418 CMOS image sensor.

According to the introduction, the image sensor and the application processor that processes its captured images are connected through MIPI. Each image sensor requires a MIPI input port. When multiple sensors are mounted on the device, additional wiring is required, the flexible printed circuit board design and There will be difficulties and limitations in the MIPI input port of the application processor.

The IMX 418 CMOS image sensor is equipped with an interface that can connect multiple sensors to the same line, and transmit the image data captured and recorded by multiple sensors at the same time to the MIPI input port of a single application processor, which not only reduces wiring , You can also connect more image sensors without having to design more MIPI input ports in a device equipped with multiple image sensors.

Sony said that the new sensor is based on the development of the global afocal-plane shutter function of the Sony CMOS image sensor, which can reduce drive voltage and power consumption.

In addition, the IMX 418 CMOS image sensor has a 1:1 viewing angle. Said that whether the camera is installed on the front, back, top, bottom, left or right side of a head-mounted display, drone or autonomous robot, it can minimize the loss of image information caused by the tilt of the device.
