Samsung will soon be releasing a huge 200-megapixel camera for its smartphone. The company announced the “ISPCELL HP1” sensor with 0.64μm pixels. This is currently the industry’s first 200MP based camera.
The South Korean company initially announced this technology in 2015, reducing colour crosstalk between pixels by placing a physical barrier that allows small-sized pixels to achieve colour fidelity.
This camera’s image sensor uses an all-directional focusing Dual pixel Pro technology with two photodiodes in a single 1.0μm pixel. Now that’s a lot of professional photography terminologies.
Duckhyun Chang, executive vice president of sensor business at Samsung Electronics has this to say.
“With the ISOCELL HP1 that is breaking barriers and ISOCELL GN5 bringing ultrafast auto focus, Samsung will continue to lead the trend for next-generation mobile imaging technologies.”
“Samsung has been pioneering ultrafine pixel technologies that are taking high-resolution image sensors to the next level.”
The ISOCELL HP1 can capture sharp 8k video and is small enough to be embedded in smartphones. Performing exceptionally well in low light with its all-new ChamelonCell technology.
