Sony Corporation announced that it has developed a new next-generation back-illuminated CMOS image sensor which embodies the continuous evolution of the camera.
This image sensor layers the pixel section containing formations of back-illuminated structure pixels onto chips containing the circuit section for signal processing. This structure achieves further enhancement in image quality, superior functionalities and a more compact size that will lead to enhanced camera evolution.
Sony plans to position it as the next generation back-illuminated CMOS image sensors, and unwaveringly strive to develop and expand its product lineup, thereby contributing to the development of user-friendly cameras and to create better shooting experiences.
