Sony releases 7.4 megapixel stacked CMOS

Sony has launched a new 1/1.7-type stacked Cmos image sensor with a 7.42 (effective) megapixel RCCC filter for forward sensing cameras in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). The IMX324 aims to provide high definition imaging of signs approximately 160m ahead of the camera. In pixel binning mode the low light sensitivity is increased to 2,666 mV, to capture images in conditions down to 0.1 lux. In mixed lighting scenes (such as headlights and streetlights) it alternately captures dark sections at

576 Sony has launched a new 1/1.7-type stacked Cmos image sensor  with a 7.42 (effective) megapixel RCCC filter for forward sensing cameras in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

The IMX324 aims to provide high definition imaging of signs approximately 160m ahead of the camera. In pixel binning mode the low light sensitivity is increased to 2,666 mV, to capture images in conditions down to 0.1 lux.

In mixed lighting scenes (such as headlights and streetlights) it alternately captures dark sections at high-sensitivity settings and bright sections at high resolution which are combined during processing.

    The all-new Ford Mondeo will be equipped with a raft of safety features, including technology that is able to detect people in the road ahead and – if the driver does not respond to warning sounds and displays – automatically applies the brakes. Pedestrian Detection is among a raft of new features and improvements detailed by Ford which enhance the Mondeo. The system is part of the Pre-Collision Assist package that also introduces Active Braking, which can autonomously apply braking to help mitigate rear
