The camera is capable of capturing a 200 x 200 video at 30fps. The sensor delivers 1,000 mV/lux-sec low-light sensitivity and uses the company’s in-house sensor technology ‘OmniBSI+ pixel’ to deliver quality images. The sensor can shoot a 120-degree wide-angle view and gives a depth of field of the range up to 30mm. The company claims OV6948 is the only ultra-small “chip on tip” camera which features backside illumination. The sensor enables easy integration, with a 4-pin interface and analog data output, capable of data transmission of up to 4 meters with minimal signal noise.



Possible Applications
Initially, the camera sensor was developed for medical applications in an endoscope but can be used for many other things like  IoT devices, Wearables, Forensic devices, etc.
