SANTA CLARA, Calif.,
May 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/
-- OmniVision Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: OVTI), a leading
developer of advanced digital imaging solutions, today announced
the OV9752, a new CameraChip™ sensor designed for next-generation
security and home monitoring applications. The 1/3-inch OV9752
captures high definition (HD) images and video in 1280 x 960 pixel
resolution as well as infrared information, providing excellent
scene reproduction regardless of lighting conditions. These
benefits make the OV9752 an ideal camera solution for security
systems designed to record during day and night.
"The OV9752 uses an RGB-IR dual band color filter instead of the
traditional mechanical rotary filter, which both simplifies the
design and reduces the sensor footprint. This approach also allows
the sensor to capture extremely high quality IR images and video,
even from great distances," said Chris
Yiu, senior strategic marketing manager at OmniVision.
"Traditional security cameras' mechanical IR filters are major
cause for security camera failures. By eliminating the need for
such a mechanical filter, the OV9752 provides our customers with a
more reliable and highly effective camera solution."
Built on the 3.75-micron OmniPixel3-HS™ pixel architecture, the
OV9752 can capture excellent images and video in high, low, and
"no" light environments, in either visible light or infrared. The
sensors can capture in 1280 x 960 pixel resolution video at 60
frames per second (FPS) with 10-bit output, or at 45 FPS with
12-bit output. Additionally, the OV9752 features an ultra-low power
mode, which allows the sensor to reduce the resolution and frame
rates and operate at reduced power consumption.
The OV9752 fits into a 6.3 x 5.2 mm package. It is currently
available for sampling and is expected to enter volume production
in the fourth quarter of 2015.
