Omnivision’s new OX05D10 5-megapixel CMOS image sensor, with TheiaCel technology, is designed to provide industry’s leading LED flicker mitigation (LFM) without sacrificing image quality. The sensor suits all automotive use cases where high dynamic range, low-light performance and LFM are critical.
Omnivision’s head of automotive product marketing, Dr Paul Wu, said: “TheiaCel enables the OX05D10 to achieve high LFM without sacrificing image quality, and the OX05D10 also retains all the most important features that automotive OEMs demand, including low-light performance, small size and low power. We have expanded our product line to offer our customers the choice between 8MP and 5MP, depending on their needs.”
Increasing adoption of advanced driver assistance systems and autonomous driving requires improved LFM, HDR and high- resolution image sensors. For example, pulsed illumination from LED traffic lights poses a serious challenge for many imaging solutions, preventing ADAS and AD systems from correctly detecting lighted traffic signs.
