Report: OmniVision unveils its own high-end 200MP sensor, the OVB0D | Infinium-tech
The OmniVision also has a new high-end 200MP camera sensor for the upcoming camera flagship to rival the recently announced Sony LYTIA 901.
According to a report in Korean media, the OmniVision OVB0D is a 200MP 1/1.1-inch imager, slightly larger than the 1/1.12-inch LYTIA 901. The sensor features Bayer filters, but has a different dual on-chip re-mosaic structure to LYTIA’s more complex QQBC.
Technically, and we are hypothesizing a bit, due to lack of proper information, Sony’s sensor may have a slight edge in detail due to its more advanced quad-quad Bayer coding structure.
The OmniVision OVB0D has very high full-well capacity (400k) and dynamic range, and uses DCG + LOFIC Gen 2 technology for its multi-frame HDR processing. This helps it handle extreme HDR scenarios better. LOFIC Gen 2 and dynamic range of 108dB promise good handling of mixed lighting within a scene.
According to the famous tipster iceuniverseOVB0D is headed to the flagships of Vivo, Oppo, Xiaomi and Honor in 2026.
He says that due to “rising costs and declining profitability”, Samsung is unlikely to adopt either Sony or OmniVision’s new, larger 200MP sensors. Instead Samsung will continue to use the same small 200MP 1/1.3-inch sensor as the existing HP2.
