The OV0TA1B is a low-power device that is intended for artificial intelligence (AI)-based human presence detection (HPD), facial authentication and always-on (AON) technology.
“Stand-alone 940nm IR cameras are becoming more mainstream, especially in the latest generation of ultrathin-bezel design notebooks that feature personalised AI features and require HPD and facial authentication capabilities,” said Jason Chiang, staff marketing manager computing, OMNIVISION. “The OV0TA1B is the newest mono/IR sensor in our computing portfolio designed to be a cost-effective, ultra-small-footprint device; it is suitable for HPD and facial authentication in 3mm module Y bezel and smaller designs. The ultra-small size of the OV0TA1B sensor also makes it useful for webcams and IoT devices, like those used for people and traffic counting.”
The OV0TA1B comes in either IR or mono, depending on the customers’ design needs (in cases where the system has another stand-alone RGB camera).
It features a 2-micron (µm) pixel based on PureCel pixel technology for high-performance sensitivity and MTF (modulation transfer function), allowing it to maintain the HPD and facial authentication.
The OV0TA1B delivers 440 x 360 resolution at 30 frames per second (fps). It is a low-power 220x180 (2.58mW@3fps) image sensor in a 1/15.8-inch optical format.
The OV0TA1B is available for sampling now, and it will be in mass production in Q1 2025.
