Omnivision has introduced near-infrared (NIR) sensor technology called Nyxel which claims to increase quantum efficiency (QE) up to 3x at 850nm and 5x at 940nm, when previous NIR-capable sensors. These improvements in NIR sensitivity enable the image sensor to see better and farther under the same amount of light, extending the image detection range. Conversely, to match ...
