Silicon Image Develops 12 Megapixel Camera Processor for Mobile Devices

April 16, 2008 5:43 AM | Technology | Comments (0)

Silicon Image, Inc. has announced the availability of its 12 megapixel (MP) camera processor IP core for integration into system-on-a-chip (SoC) semiconductors.

This technology delivers professional picture quality and advanced camera functionality once only found in digital still cameras (DSCs), but now conveniently integrated into mobile phones, portable multimedia players (PMPs), ultra mobile PCs (UMPCs) and security cameras. Versions of this technology have already been licensed by five of the world’s leading mobile phone SoC suppliers.

Until now, mobile devices had fewer features and lower picture quality than available in standalone cameras. With the release of Silicon Image's 12MP camera processor IP core, users of mobile devices can now experience imaging with the highest resolution and color quality from small form factor mobile devices.  The 12MP version is the latest addition to Silicon Image’s family of sophisticated low-power camera processor IP cores which includes 2, 3, 5 and 8MP resolutions. In addition to JPEG encoding and image scaling, the image signal processor supports the following features:

 

  • Continuous digital zoom
  • Auto exposure
  • Autofocus
  • Lens shade correction
  • Chromatic aberration correction
  • Bad pixel detection and correction
  • Image stabilization
