Samsung ISOCELL Dual image sensors coming to mid- and entry-level smartphones

Samsung has introduced ISOCELL Dual image sensors, allowing mid- and entry-level smartphones to use dual camera features like refocusing (bokeh) and low-light shooting (LLS).

Features like refocusing and LLS are no stranger when it comes to smartphones who sport a dual camera setup. Now, Samsung is integrating this feature to mid- and entry-level smartphones through SOCELL Dual sensor hardware and sensor-optimized algorithm software. Samsung is coupling its refocusing algorithm with a 13MP and 5MP set of image sensors and two 8MP sensors for its LLS algorithm to simply implementation by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).

“Dual cameras are delivering new and exciting photo-taking experiences on mobile devices,” said Samsung Vice President of System LSI Marketing Ben K. Hur. “Samsung’s total solution for ISOCELL Dual will make our customers’ product development process easier, allowing them to bring the most optimized dual camera features to a wider range of consumers.”
