Omnivision is sampling two additional sensors to its  Nyxel NIR family. Mass production i s scheduled for next year.

The OX02C1S, is  a 2.5-megapixel (MP) RGB-IR BSI global shutter (GS) sensor for in-cabin driver and occupant monitoring systems (DMS and OMS) and the OX01H1B, is a 1.5MP mono (IR) GS sensor for driver monitoring systems (DMS).

 

With a pixel size of  2.2µm, both new sensors feature NIR quantum efficiency (QE) at 36%, an increase in modulation transfer function (MTF) over the previous 3.0 µm FSI GS pixel design, and  low power consumption for the highest-performance capabilities.

Both OX02C1S and OX01H1B are small-size automotive-grade sensors. Both utilize OmniPixel 4-GS technology which enables simultaneous image detection in all pixels to accurately reproduce rapid motion without any deformation.

 

They have integrated ASIL-B and cybersecurity that meet the latest industry standards. Both come in an OMNIVISION stacked a-CSP™ package, allowing for higher-performance image sensors in tighter camera spaces, and are also available in a reconstructed wafer option for designers that want the flexibility to customize their own package.

The OX02C1S sensor features 2.5MP resolution in a 1/3.55-inch optical format, while the OX01H1B features 1.5MP resolution in a 1/4.51-inch optical format.
