ISOCELL HP2 is Samsung’s new image sensor. It is currently in a mass production phase and will form part of the main camera of the highest-end ‘smartphones’, predictably also in the series Galaxy S23, which the company will announce on February 1.
This component offers 200 megapixels of a size of 0.6 micrometers in a format of 1/13 incheswhich according to what Samsung has indicated in its press release is “the size of the sensor that is used expandable in the main 108-megapixel camera of smartphones.”
ISOCELL HP2 uses the technology of Tetra Pixel pixel binning, Samsung’s own, which modifies the size of the pixel to adapt it to the different levels of luminosity. This means that in a dimly lit environment is sensor changes to 50 megapixels with a size of 1.2 micrometers or 12.5 megapixels of 2.4 micrometers.
This change also occurs in video recording; in 8K changes to 50 megapixels of 1.2 micrometers, in such a way that by expanding the field of vision and the size of the pixel, the resulting video is sharper, according to the company.
The technology Dual Vertical Transfer Gate (D-VTG) reduces washed-out images in brightly lit environments, and in low-light environments, autofocus uses Super QPD for more precise focusing.
The camera is one of the elements that Samsung will highlight from the Galaxy S23 series at a new Galaxy Unpacked event, which it has organized for February 1. In your announcement you have already anticipated that at least one model will have three lenses on the main camera and that the novelties will highlight the improved night photography and the resolution of the captures.
