The resolution of cameras installed in smartphones is increasing year by year, but it seems that the time will soon exceed the resolution of human eyes. We have received information that Samsung is developing a camera sensor with 576 million pixels, which is equivalent to the human eye.
Release of 576-megapixel camera sensor by 2025
This was revealed in a slide presented at the SEMI Europe Summit by Samsung’s senior VP of Automotive Sensors.
According to it, Samsung plans to bring a 576-megapixel camera sensor to the market by 2025.
It is said that the human eye is equivalent to about 500 million pixels when converted to a camera sensor, and it can be said that this camera sensor reaches the same level as humans in terms of resolution.
It is unknown whether it will be installed in smartphones
However, it is unclear whether this 576-megapixel sensor will be installed in smartphones.
This announcement was made by a senior VP in charge of automotive sensors, and Samsung also has a VR and drone business.
The details of this camera sensor are still unknown, but it seems that new applications can be expected with the advent of camera sensors that are equal to or better than the human eye.
