Huawei’s first 1-inch camera sensor is ready with new imaging tech
...
This new sensor is a 50MP camera with a 1/1.3-inch format. It uses an RYYB (Red, Yellow, Yellow, Blue) filter array that allows 40% more light to reach the sensor.RYYB sensors enhance low-light performance with noise reduction in dark scenarios and improve the overall dynamic range to offer brighter and more detailed images even under challenging conditions.
On the flip side, the 1-inch camera sensor is paired with DCG and HDR technology. DCG refers to Dual Conversion Gain technology that boosts the image quality by capturing a single exposure with two different gains – high and low simultaneously.
...
yes, design and fabricated by Huawei
ReplyDeleteThe 40% more light comment suggests that like Samsung they might be used metasurface re-routers
ReplyDeleteIt probably just means Yellow filter instead of Green. This has been done for several years now.
DeleteWhat Sensor companies use RYYB filters on image sensors? Are there any ISP that can de-mosaic the RYYB except the HiSilicon?
DeleteSurely just moving from green to yellow cannot increase light sensitivity by 40%?
DeleteI doubt they are doing it with triple layer like Sony, maybe a clone of Omnivision LOFIC which they already use. 20 EV is the new holy grail, any news about Apple's progress?
ReplyDelete"This new sensor is a 50MP camera with a 1/1.3-inch format" ... 1-inch?
ReplyDeleteThe way it's phrased, the question in the title violates Betteridge's law.
ReplyDeleteYou are forgetting Poe’s law in your reply, Sir :)
