The OMNIVISION OH02A1S provides simultaneous white-light RGB and IR monochrome capture in a single CMOS medical image sensor. Using the OH02A1S, designers of chip-on-tip endoscopes for cancer detection can eliminate a second image sensor. The integration of IR and RGB light in a single sensor not only reduces the size of endoscopes, but also trims cost, power, and heat.

Manufacturing issues grow as cameras become more sophisticated.
