On Semiconductor’s 3μm-based CMOS image sensor product provides a foundation to allow customers to immediately begin development of vision systems for autonomous driving, with the opportunity to move to future sensors at volume deployment.
With high dynamic range (HDR), the sensor is able to provide clear, single images and video in the challenging low and mixed light scenes synonymous with automotive environments.
In addition to simplified and accelerated design, test and implementation of automotive camera applications, the relationship gives Apollo ecosystem members priority access to On Semiconductor’s technical support and product information.
All Apollo partners will also secure early opportunities to work with future generation, image sensing technologies from On Semiconductor.
