OmniVision is sampling the OVMed OCHTA camera module with quadruple the resolution of its predecessor, at 400×400, or 160 KPixels, for clearer images inside the body’s farthest recesses. This module features the CameraCubeChip wafer-level technology, enabling it to match the world’s smallest size of its predecessor, at 0.65mm x 0.65mm, for deep anatomical access. This technology also ...
