In accordance with new press reports (at present in Japanese), Japanese tech firm Nikon has developed a stacked CMOS image sensor with a total pixel count of around 17.84 million pixels that deliver high-resolution imaging with thousand frames per second, HDR features of 110 dB, and 4K * 4K resolution.
This new image sensor was introduced and announced on February 15,2021 at the ISSCC (International Solid-State Circuits Conference) held in San Francisco.
As mentioned by Nikon, the corporate is “Engaged in research and growth of cutting-edge image sensors, that are the core of video technology, based on optical tech, precision measurement/processing technology, and material technology”.
Nikon adds that it’s very focused on R&D-ing image sensors which can be used not solely in the video field such as cameras and smartphone devices but additionally in numerous industrial fields comparable to vehicles. Efforts in the development are devoted to achieving a high frame rate.
The corporate explains that this new image sensor makes use of layered technology that may deal with 2.7 um pixel sizes, making it possible to regulate the top chip with an image sensor instantly from the logic circuit of the bottom chip, and regardless of the size of a 1-inch sensor (which is quite small in comparison with other high-resolution sensors), it's 4K.
Furthermore, the new image sensor owns 110db wide dynamic range, and improved high-speed video recording of 1,000 FPS(frames per second), because of its high-speed readout capabilities.
Furthermore, Nikon offered the graphic to show the way it arranged the pixels on this new sensor. With this design, The corporate says that it's possible to finely control the exposure time of those blocks from the bottom chip for every area. This permits the image sensor to have a very wide dynamic range.
