Micron Anti-Shake Sensor

Micron today announced a new 3-megapixel, 1/4-inch MT9T111 SOC image sensor—the first with a motion-adaptive feature to minimize image blur caused by camera shake and fast-moving subjects. Its flyer says: "When the MT9T111 detects motion in the field of view, it automatically adjusts settings to greatly reduce image blur." The flyer gives some example images:



The sensor uses 1.75um pixels and has a huge 24.99deg chief ray angle at 80% of image hight. Pleliminary SNR and DR are stated as 38db and 67.4db respectively. This roughly translates to ~3e noise floor. The power consumption is 150mW in 30fps preview mode.

General customer sampling is planned for August 2007 with mass production expected in the Q4 2007.
