Sony unveils Lytia 901, a 200MP 1/1.12" type smartphone camera sensor
"Sony's sensor is 1/1.12" type, with a 14.287 mm diagonal. It's billed to achieve "high-definition image quality" even with 4x in-sensor zoom. It has a pixel size of 0.7 μm. It employs a Quad-Quad Bayer Coding (QQBC) array with 4x4 adjacent pixels being clustered with filters of the same color. The signals of the 16 pixels are processed as a single unit shooting at 12.5MP."
"With in-sensor zoom, remosaicing reverts the clustered pixels to a normal array. This is AI-enhanced by a special processing circuit mounted inside the sensor, which is an industry-first. Sony promises "superior reproduction of details such as fine patterns and letters", as well as "high-speed processing and up to 30fps high-quality video capture when shooting with up to 4x zoom in 4K"."
"You also get high dynamic range and tonal expressions across the entire zoom range up to 4x thanks to DCG-HDR and Fine12bit ADC tech, the latter improving quantization bit depth from the conventional 10 bits to 12. And with Hybrid Frame HDR (HF-HDR), you get over 100dB of high dynamic range performance in the QQBC mode. Expect significantly suppressed highlight blowouts in bright areas, as well as blackouts in dark areas, for images "that more closely resemble what the human eye actually sees"."
The Lytia 901 is a 1/1.12" type 200MP sensor with a 14.287 mm diagonal and 0.7 μm pixels. The sensor uses Quad-Quad Bayer Coding (QQBC) to cluster 4x4 pixels and process the 16-pixel group as a single 12.5MP unit. In-sensor remosaicing restores a normal pixel array for zoomed output and is enhanced by an on-sensor AI processing circuit. The sensor incorporates DCG-HDR, Fine12bit ADC and Hybrid Frame HDR to deliver over 100dB dynamic range and reduced highlight blowouts. Video support includes 8K30fps and 4K120fps, plus multiple burst modes. The sensor ships to device makers this month and is expected in flagship phones.
