October 17 news: OmniVision, a world-leading developer of semiconductor solutions for advanced digital imaging, analog, and display technologies, announced the launch of its next-generation automotive image sensor: the 8-megapixel CMOS image sensor OX08D20 featuring TheiaCel® technology. This new product is an upgraded version of the popular sensor OX08D10, specifically designed for automotive exterior cameras in Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Autonomous Driving (AD).
Dr. Wu Peng, Director of Automotive Product Marketing at OmniVision, stated: "OmniVision's OX08D10 image sensor with TheiaCel® technology was launched at the AutoSens Brussels exhibition in 2023. Automakers generally expect a single image sensor to integrate multiple key functions, including industry-leading low-light performance, LED flicker mitigation, compact size, excellent image quality in high-temperature environments, and low power consumption. OX08D10 has become their ideal choice due to its outstanding overall performance. Our mission is to work with customers to solve their challenges, which is why our next-generation products are designed around innovative features that meet customer needs."
OX08D20 retains all the advantages of OX08D10 while adding the following new features:
An innovative imaging solution developed in collaboration with Mobileye, which significantly reduces motion blur of nearby objects (during driving) and enhances low-light performance.
Increased frame rate to 60fps, supporting dual-use of cameras.
Upgraded cybersecurity features, compliant with the latest industry standard MIPI CSE 2.0.
In addition to industry-leading low-light performance, the OX08D20 sensor also offers low power consumption and uses a-CSP™ packaging, which is 50% smaller than similar exterior sensors. The sensor will sample in November 2025 and is expected to enter mass production in the fourth quarter of 2026.
