TECNO’s ‘Ultimage’ imaging tech coming to CAMON 20 Series


At the 2023 Future of Imaging Technology Conference today in Delhi, TECNO unveiled“Ultimage” which the company calls ultimate imaging experience with a specific focus on sensors and AI processing that seamlessly integrates cutting-edge smartphone imaging technology.

Thee “Ultimage”tech comes after research and development and an outcome of thorough understanding of consumer needs to cater requirements of portrait photography, anti-shaking functionality, and lowlight shooting.

TECNO recently unveiled the CAMON 20 line-up that includes CAMON 20 Premier 5G, CAMON 20 Pro 5G, and CAMON 20 that are expected to launch in India by the end of this month.

The CAMON 20 Series will bring portrait video and night photography experience with the industry’s first Combination of Sensor-Shift OIS Anti-shaking Technology, 50MP RGBW Ultra-Sensitive sensor and proprietary AI algorithms which will disrupt the mobile photography segment and set it apart from its competition, said the company.

RGBW Pro Technology

RGBW Pro Technology replaces the “green” array solution in the traditional RGGB color filter with a “white” one, thus allowing 208% light intake to be captured in low-light conditions.

The 1G+6P lens increases the light intake when it reaches the main sensor by replacing one of the plastic lenses with a glass one. The main sensor on TECNO CAMON 20 Premier 5G is also increased from 1/1.73 to 1/1.56 and the single pixel size from 0.8μm to 1.0μm, with 56.25% larger light-sensitive area to ensure images are as close to real-life scenes as possible.

With greater light transmission, TECNO CAMON 20 Premier 5G lets users capture crystal-clear night portrait in stunning definition, never losing a detail in the dark.

Sensor-shift Technology

TECNO has incorporated in-body image stabilization into the CAMON 20 Premier 5G. The Sensor-Shift OIS Anti-Shaking Technology can compensate for shakes up to 5,000 times per second. As a result, images and video are crisp and vivid, even when taken while moving at speed.

Instead of relying on lens movement to compensate for shaky hands or bumpy rides, Sensor-shift uses the motion of the camera’s sensor itself. This advanced anti-shake solution provides smoother, clearer images than ever before.

Portrait Master Algorithm

TECNO’s premium series of smartphones promise a lifestyle-oriented approach to photography with the Portrait Master.

The advanced portrait algorithm can enhance seven distinct skin tones using deep learning technology and machine learning advancements. With over 50 million deep skin tone photos, this algorithm claims to be the most advanced in the industry, offering users unparalleled customization and control for optimizing their portraits.

TECNO recently confirmed Android 14 beta for CAMON 20 series is coming this fall.

Availability

TECNO’s premium product lines, Phantom and CAMON will feature this next generation of technology starting first from CAMON 20 series.
