OMNIVISION Demonstrates Industry’s First 8-Megapixel LFM Image Sensor

If you ask Elon Mask, cameras are the most important sensor in order to get to the full self-driving. We believe that a combination of radar, camera, and lidar, if price permits, is the best way, but this is just us. In that light, Xilinx, in partnership with OMNIVISION has demonstrated the Industry’s First 8-Megapixel LFM Image sensor system for forward-looking automotive camera systems. In plain words, an 8-megapixel camera will make the car see much further, clearer, and get more detail, directly increasing the security of the vehicle and its passengers.
