Resolution arms race speeds up again, as tech starts shipping.
Renesas Technology, which makes the modules for phone cameras, has announced the availability of kit that could lead to smartphones with 16 mega pixel cameras.
Samples have already been shipped that can reproduce a 1920 × 1080 image resolution and high-speed continuous shooting at 15 frames per second at 13 megapixels.
It aims to start commercial production from March 2011.
With 3D and hi-def phones coming, this could be quite a year for mobile video/imaging. But not such a good one for battery life.
Thanks - Me
