- September 2022 - OmniVision, a leading global developer of semiconductor solutions, including advanced digital imaging, analog, and touch & display technology, announced the OV08X, the industry's only 9.2 megapixels (MP) CMOS image sensor with a pixel size of 0.7-micron, enabling 4K resolution in a 1/5.7-inch optical format. The OV08X can be used in the most stringent 4mm y-dimension module laptops with 16:10 (1920x1200) aspect ratio monitors. It is the first image sensor for the laptop market to combine a four-cell color filter array and on-chip hardware remosaic, delivering high-quality, 9.2 MP Bayer output in real-time. The sensor is created with a low-power image signal processor to offer leading-edge light sensing and ultra-low power to maximize battery stamina.
- February 2022 - Elliptic Labs, a global AI software company and one of the leaders in Virtual Smart Sensors, announced that it's AI Virtual Proximity Sensor INNER BEAUTY would be shipping on Xiaomi's Redmi K50 Gaming smartphone. Elliptic Labs' AI Virtual Proximity Sensor delivers robust proximity detection without needing a dedicated hardware sensor. The AI Virtual Proximity Sensor reduces device cost and eliminates sourcing risk by replacing hardware with software sensors.
