Samsung announced World’s First 200MP ISOCELL HP1 sensor along with new 50MP ISOCELL GN5 sensor

    Samsung ISOCELL HP1 200MP and GN5 50MP sensor launch

    Samsung has announced its first 200MP image sensor ISOCELL HP1 with a 0.64μm pixel sensor along with 50MP ISOCELL GN5, which is the first image sensor to adopt all-directional focusing Dual Pixel Pro technology with two photodiodes in a single 1.0μm pixel. Both camera sensors support up to 8K@30fps, 4K@120fps, and FHD@240fps video recording.

    Samsung 200MP ISOCELL HP1 Sensor Features -

    • 0.64μm-sized pixels, the ISOCELL HP1 brings such ultrahigh resolution in a small package that fits comfortably in today’s handheld devices.
    • Pictures hold an astonishing amount of detail that helps the image stay sharp even when cropped or resized.
    • features an all-new ChameleonCell technology, a pixel-binning technology that uses a two-by-two, four-by-four, or full pixel layout depending on the environment.
    • In a low-lit environment, the HP1 transforms into a 12.5MP image sensor with large 2.56μm pixels by merging 16 neighboring pixels.
    • 2.56μm pixel is capable of more light absorption and sensitivity, producing brighter and clearer photos indoors or in the evening.
    • In bright outdoor environments, the sensor’s 200-million pixels can capture ultra-high-definition photography on mobile devices.
    • Supports 8K videos at 30 frames-per-second (fps) with minimum loss in the field of view.
    • Merges four neighboring pixels to bring the resolution down to 50MP or 8,192 x 6,144 to take 8K (7,680 x 4,320) videos without the need to crop or scale down the full image resolution.

    Samsung ISOCELL GN5 50MP sensor

    Samsung 50MP ISOCELL GN5 Sensor Features -

    • First 1.0μm image sensor to integrate Dual Pixel Pro, an all-directional autofocusing technology, that can substantially boost autofocusing capabilities.
    • Dual Pixel Pro technology places two photodiodes, the smallest in the industry, within each 1.0μm pixel of the sensor either horizontally or vertically to recognize pattern changes in all directions.
    • With one million phase-detecting multi-directional photodiodes covering all areas of the sensor, the ISOCELL GN5’s autofocusing becomes instantaneous, enabling sharper images in either bright or low-lit environments.
    • Makes use of Samsung’s proprietary pixel technology, which applies Front Deep Trench Isolation (FDTI) on a Dual Pixel product for the first time in the industry.
    • Despite the microscopic photodiode size, FDTI enables each photodiode to absorb and hold more light information, improving the photodiodes’ full-well capacity (FWC) and decreasing crosstalk within the pixel.

    Samsung ISOCELL HP1 and GN5 sensors are already shipping to OEMs, so might be the new smartphones with these sensors introduced sometime later this year or early 2022. Earlier rumors revealed that the 200MP sensor may be used in the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra smartphone that could be launch next year.
