Samsung unveiled its 200 MP ISCOCELL HP1 camera sensor in September last year, but we haven’t seen any devices that include the mass sensor yet. That could change in July with an upcoming Motorola phone and Samsung released a video detailing the capabilities of the sensor.
The purpose of the video is to show how much detail the HP1 sensor can hold. Although no phone was used to demonstrate the new sensor, we did see it connected to a Frankenstein platform complete with a test board, an external display, and an additional lens that allowed a group of engineers to Samsung Capture Some Detailed Photos Of Cats
The final 200 MP was then printed on an industrial printer. The end result? A 28 x 22 meter canvas consisting of twelve 2.3 meter long separate pieces that were sewn and hung from a building. The actual photo was optimized and adjusted by the photographers behind the scenes, of course. The great result is that you can zoom in and out on images without losing details.
ISOCELL HP1 pixel grouping
Samsung’s HP1 sensor offers a new pixel binning technology called ChamelonCell that can group up to sixteen pixels in various resolutions ranging from 12.5 MP photos with a 2.56 μm pixel pitch to still images. 50 MP (1.28 μm pixels) or natively at 200 MP (0.64 μm). pixels) according to your needs.
