OMNIVISION’s OS08A10 is a low-power image sensor that brings 8-megapixel resolution to a variety of applications, including commercial surveillance, IoT, action cameras, drones, and augmented / virtual reality (AR/VR) systems. Built on OMNIVISION’s advanced PureCel® pixel architecture, the OS08A10 leverages backside illumination (BSI) technology with improved low-light sensitivity to deliver high-resolution images and capture ultra-high-resolution 4K2K video, even in challenging high-contrast lighting conditions.

The OS08A10 captures smooth, best-in-class 4K2K video at 60 frames per second (fps) and 1080p video at 120 fps, enabling detailed wide-area coverage. The OS08A10 also features a 11-degree chief ray angle (CRA), a two-exposure staggered high dynamic range (HDR) mode, and low power requirements to enable a range of battery-powered drones and wireless devices. The OS08A10 is compatible with advanced compression technology such as high-efficiency video coding (HEVC) to deliver 4K video to mainstream displays.
