Texas Instruments OMAP-DM5x Coprocessors Bring 20-Megapixel Capabilities to Mobile Phones
Texas Instruments Incorporated announced two new members of its OMAP-DM5x family of their coprocessors for mobile phones. From now on mobile phones will get the opportunity to deliver performance equivalent to stand-alone consumer devices, for instance, digital cameras.
The OMAP-DM515 and OMAP-DM525 feature up to 20 MP still imaging capabilities, as well as 720p high-definition (HD) camcorder functionality and thus offer an easy way to upgrade present-day handset designs with cutting-edge technologies.
The processors allow the usage of all the modern digicam technologies. With the Perfect moment technology the camera can capture a series of shots, allowing you to select the best image in a series. Smart lighting compensates for backlit and low-light environment, video noise filter improves video quality
Face detection & Tracking that recognizes and focuses on faces as well as Auto scene detector that determines appropriate settings based on environment are also supported.
Some people say that no one will ever actually produce such high-resolution sensors for camera phones, and no one come up with a lens that can support these coprocessors. Anyway, the technology develops and if it happens, there will already be such devices to process the amount of data such a sensor would generate.
These new products are intended for high-volume wireless OEMs and ODMs. The OMAP-DM515 coprocessor is available now and the OMAP- DM525 coprocessor is expected in 2010.
