OPPO unveils innovative RGBW sensor, the future of photography

OPPO Future Imaging Technology Launch Event 2021 unveils RGBW sensor technology, 85-200mm continuous optical zoom and 5-axis OIS.

OPPO Future Imaging Technology Launch Event 2021 in online format Unveils cutting-edge advances in smartphone imaging technology focused on upgrading sensors, modules and algorithms with a focus on developing and optimizing imaging technologies that so that users can “Capturing the beauty of life easily.”

Innovations unveiled at this event include OPPO’s next-generation RGBW sensor, 85-200mm continuous optical zoom, 5-axis optical image stabilization (OIS) technology, and an under-screen camera. OPPO’s next-generation (under-screen camera) with a suite of proprietary AI algorithms. Adoption of these new technologies has resulted in OPPO achieving leaps and bounds as a leader in smartphone imaging technology. which covers a wide range of photographic capabilities. since the sensitivity Zoom capabilities, stability, research into future product styles, and more.

New Sensor: Sensor RGBW A new generation that improves light sensitivity with superior color performance.

OPPO’s new RGBW sensor has clearly improved light sensitivity. By utilizing additional white (W) sub pixels, state-of-the-art DTI technology, and a self-developed 4-in-1 pixel algorithm, the result of these innovations results in the new sensor capturing more light than its predecessor. up to 60% before while reducing noise by up to 35% for crisp, bright images. and more pronounced in low light conditions

This new RGBW sensor is built using advanced manufacturing and processing technology. It can increase the level of processing power required to run complex algorithms. and maximizing the amount of data extracted through the white pixels of the sensor. OPPO’s proprietary 4-in-1 pixel algorithm significantly improves the color rendering of the sensor. The new sensor’s state-of-the-art DTI pixel separation technology prevents pixel complications and improves image quality.

In addition to improving low-light shooting capabilities, the new RGBW sensor also makes portraits and portraits sharper. both stills and video By adjusting the texture of the subject and contrast, the new sensor will be used in OPPO products to be released in Q4 2021.

New Module: Continuous 85-200mm Optical Zoom System Supports Smooth and Uninterrupted Zooming and Technology OIS type 5 Axis guarantees sharper snapshots.

The newly released module is the 85-200mm continuous optical zoom system, which features a completely new hardware-level infrastructure module design:

  • Adopting G+P (glass + plastic) lens technology for the first time, it introduces two ultra-slim, high-precision aspheric glass lenses to significantly enhance optical effects such as reducing stray light.
  • The innovative application of the tunnel magnetic field sensor (TMR sensor) enables the lens inside the camera module to move more stable and precisely.
  • The upgraded induction motor increases the dynamic level of camera shift through which the lens system can move. and supports continuous optical zoom with higher magnification.
OPPO RGBW

This innovation It supports continuous optical zoom at an equivalent focal length between 85mm and 200mm, capable of capturing sharp images at any magnification level. from close-up portraits to distant landscapes without the need to crop the image Users can enjoy smooth focus adjustments throughout the zoom range. with image quality comparable to that of a professional camera or rendering some colors too dark This may be found in conventional multi-camera zoom systems.

OPPO’s new technology, five-core OIS, allows the system’s processor to receive motion data from the gyroscope, analyze it, and sequentially break it down into smaller parts through an algorithm. The data is then transmitted to two movable components, the lens and the image sensor. which are powered by ball-bearing motors and shape memory alloys

When there is relatively little movement The image is stabilized by using OIS that can move the lens both horizontally (X) and vertically (Y). Horizontal (x), vertical (y) and rotation – in combination with compensation algorithms. to achieve stability in the five axes of the formed gap

All of these new features enable a maximum vibration angle of ±3°, which is three times higher than traditional OIS technology on mobile devices. while the sensor can also move with 2μm precision for nighttime or movie shooting. OPPO’s proprietary algorithm technology can significantly improve stability, sharpness and color performance. Vibration compensation efficiency can be increased up to 65% by 5-axis OIS technology will be implemented in OPPO products released in Q1 2022.

New Algorithm: The Algorithm That OPPO Developed by myself to support the new camera under the screen. to deliver the perfect balance between screen and camera quality.

Finally, OPPO has also launched a new in-screen camera solution for future smartphones. It uses an innovative pixel geometry that can display images with resolutions up to 400-PPI in the under-screen camera area. and with the use of transparent wires and new design The end result is a more refined display quality. with a smoother viewing experience With each pixel circuit driving only 1 pixel (“1-to-1”) in the screen and OPPO’s precise compensation algorithm technology, the color and brightness of the entire screen is more precisely controlled. with a deviation of only 2% and extends the screen life by up to 50%.

In addition, OPPO Research Institute in the United States It has also developed a set of image AI algorithms, including diffraction reduction, anti-condensation, HDR and AWB, to further improve the image quality of the under-screen camera. OPPO continues to test AI diffraction reduction. model by using tens of thousands of images to help reduce the problem precisely This allows users to capture clearer and more natural images.

To meet the ever-changing photography needs of consumers around the world, OPPO is constantly enhancing its global R&D capabilities. OPPO currently has 6 research institutes, 5 R&D centers, and Dozens of imaging labs around the world including a new lab in Hyderabad India and a lab in Yokohama. Japan In the future, OPPO will continue to focus on the use of self-developed imaging technology. and further strengthening cooperation with industry partners to bring a more superior photography experience to users around the world.
