Oppo announces five-axis OIS for smartphones: Here’s what it means

Opposition Announced several new advances in camera technology at its Future Imaging event. This new technology will be part of Oppo’s upcoming flagship smartphones and will include advancements such as sensor-shift technology and improved periscope zoom. The new advancements are explained in detail here.

better periscope zoom

The first development is an improved periscope capability. Future Oppo phones will be equipped with a periscope zoom lens that will offer continuous optical zoom between a focal length of 85-200mm. So, if the typical 1X zoom setting on the camera sensor lens is set to say 26mm, users will get an optical zoom range between 3.3x and 7.7x.

While many phones already offer optical zoom focal length, the new implementation will do it with a single camera, which is not so common. Typically, an “optical zoom” setup is possible with a dedicated 2x or 3.3x camera while a second lens offers 5x or 10x zoom. You can also check out the brief description of the event below.

Oppo’s continuous zoom technology enables users to easily zoom between two different optical zoom levels with the same camera. This will be made possible by a technology called TMR, or Tunnel Magnetoresistance Sensor, which allows the lens to move smoothly within the periscope camera model.

Oppo is also developing a new OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) system for its primary cameras that uses sensor-shift technology. Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max. This will include a setup using small ball bearings so that the sensor can move horizontally and vertically using AI algorithms to compensate for any minimal motion. This should result in less shake and better low light and night mode shots.

new camera sensor

Oppo is also developing its own RGBW (Red Green Blue White) camera sensor that can reportedly capture more light and reduce noise. The new OPPO sensor will use the popular 4-in-1 binning method to capture accurate color, detail and light and algorithms to improve skin texture and contrast.

The new OIS technology and other developments can be seen in the smartphone from early next year, and could be part of the Oppo Find X3 Pro successor.
