Korean tech large Samsung has introduced a brand new 50MP camera sensor dubbed ISOCELL GN2. The sensor is an improve of final yr’s mannequin the ISOCELL GN1 which was introduced with a quicker auto-focus. Though the brand new GN2 nonetheless retains a 50MP sensor measurement, it options larger pixels in addition to improved vitality consumption. The sensor additionally comes with a brand new Part Detection Autofocus (PDAF) dubbed Twin Pixel Professional.
The ISOCELL GN2 has a pixel measurement of 1.4μm whereas the sensor has a measurement of 1/1.12-inch, the biggest you could find in a smartphone. Samsung claims the massive 1.4μm pixel measurement is able to delivering “exceptionally detailed images in common settings”. The sensor additionally deploys the four-pixel-binning know-how to attain a 2.8μm pixel measurement in order to ship high quality photographs in a low-lit surroundings.
Additional, the brand new Samsung sensor is able to capturing 100MP photographs by re-organizing the colour pixels by way of what Samsung calls “an clever re-mosaic algorithm”. How this works is that the sensor captures three 50 MP layers in Inexperienced, Blue, and Pink, that are then overlaid, upscaled, and merged to supply the high-resolution {photograph}.
One other key spotlight of the ISOCELL GN2 is the Part Detection Auto-Focus (PDAF) function which Samsung christened Twin Pixel Professional. That is the primary sensor with this function which is claimed to be Samsung’s most superior PDAF resolution. The know-how includes splitting the inexperienced pixels diagonally as an alternative of splitting the pink, inexperienced, and blue pixels vertically. This enables the highest and backside to learn section variations in addition to the left and proper sides. On this manner, the autofocus is swift and exact even in antagonistic situations such because the low-light surroundings or fast-moving object.
Samsung says the camera sensor is already being mass-produced. There isn’t a indication once we’ll discover it in smartphones however each time it comes, the sensor will function Good ISO Professional which is creating on the spot HDR photographs with fewer motion-artifacts. The sensor additionally helps 1080p @ 480 fps or 4K @ 120 fps video recording.
