Front cameras are always looking up at lights, the sun, and so on. The user is always backlit. Higher resolution might be good for eye tracking, but problems like lens flare and backlighting make it quite hard. An HDR sensor might be a better choice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19092890.post-29258772010400064822013-05-15T18:16:31.378+03:002013-05-15T18:16:31.378+03:00The yet to be released Motorola X phone is romored...The yet to be released Motorola X phone is romored to have a 5MP front camera. It is also rumored to have eye tracking (not just eye detection like the latest Samsung phone). I was wondering if the additional resolution might be required for the eye tracking algorithms. Does anyone have any thoughts on that?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19092890.post-1610434063469066892013-05-15T09:08:16.673+03:002013-05-15T09:08:16.673+03:00I think it could become a trend for brands, like O...I think it could become a trend for brands, like Oppo, to get a leg up on the spec sheet. Anything beyond 1080p is unless until we get mobile data rate of gigabit Ethernet. People could use them for self portrait but you could easily flip the phone and use the rear cam. Just need a small mirror like is old Palm Treos. And the display is now peaked at 1080p anyway so packing more pixels wont give you too much boast. In fact, it might get less useful in low light. The trend should be 1080p sensors with bigger pixels for better low light video conferencing.
