SGWRD Launches ultra small size 3MP Automotive Surround-View Camera

SGWRD Launches ultra small size 3MP Automotive Surround-View Camera

September 02, 2024

Today, the development of automotive intelligence is rapidly advancing towards autonomous driving. Imaging and vision, as one of the key technologies, are crucial for achieving safe, reliable, and efficient autonomous driving.

 

SGWRD has recently launched an ultra-Small automotive surround-view camera module based on the Onsemi 3MP AR0341AT image sensor. This product helps improve driving safety standards, meets the demands of high-speed autonomous driving for excellent HDR performance and image quality, and reduces system development costs.

 

 

ONSEMI Ultra Small AR0341AT Image Sensor

The AR0341AT is one of the first products in Onsemi’s new Hyperlux image sensor series. It is equipped with second-generation super exposure pixel technology, offering an industry-leading 150 dB high dynamic range (HDR) and LED flicker mitigation (LFM) functionality. This pixel technology significantly reduces latency in critical automotive systems that depend on scene-specific automatic exposure control operations, enabling faster and safer data collection and decision-making.

 

With no compromise on performance, the AR0341AT image sensor, featuring a 2.1 µm pixel size and 3MP resolution, achieves the industry's smallest automotive camera with its Small optical size and industry-leading low power consumption. Additionally, the AR0341AT image sensor is designed following ASIL-C design processes and surpasses ASIL-B hardware standards with its complex real-time safety mechanisms and fault detection features.

The camera module using the OX08D10 image sensor, with OMNIVISION's advanced TheiaCel technology, provides advantages in low light sensitivity, dynamic range (HDR), and LED flicker suppression (LFM), which are particularly suitable for automotive camera applications, especially in the fields of advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD).

 

① Excellent HDR performance

 

The high dynamic range (HDR) of the AR0341AT image sensor is 150 dB, which can capture high-quality images under the most extreme lighting conditions without sacrificing low light sensitivity. As one of the first products to adopt Hyperlux technology, AR0341AT boasts excellent HDR performance. Hyperlux can provide vivid, sharp, and detailed images. Due to its extremely stable and unaffected by temperature or lighting conditions, it lays the foundation for higher safety designs.

 

As shown in the figure below, the Hyperlux sensor performs well in the most demanding environments and extreme conditions.

② Leading ultra-low power consumption and small size

 

As more image sensors are added to vehicles, their size and power consumption have become design considerations for the automotive industry. The AR0341AT image sensor features industry-leading ultra-low power consumption and Small size. Compared to other image sensors, the AR0341AT reduces power consumption by up to 30% and footprint by up to 28%, enabling a high-efficiency design with lower system material costs.

 

③ Excellent LED Flicker Mitigation (LFM) Performance

 

The AR0341AT image sensor prevents machine vision issues caused by LED flickering. With Hyperlux technology, the sensor's LFM capabilities ensure that pulsed light sources do not flicker, avoiding machine vision problems caused by flicker and significantly improving driving safety standards to support high-speed autonomous driving.

 

 Real time functional security mechanism

 

The AR0341AT image sensor, adopting Hyperlux technology, meets the strict safety requirements of ASIL D-rated automotive safety integrity systems. The integrated security features provide maximum protection against cybersecurity threats. Hyperlux series sensors also offer dual output streams at different resolutions, allowing simultaneous perception and other functions. Designers benefit from its flexible architecture, enabling multiple functions with a single camera, reducing design time, risk, and cost.

 

SGWRD ultra small size 3MP Car surround-view camera

 

Leveraging its comprehensive technical capabilities in high-quality imaging and extensive mass production experience, along with its industry advantages in smart driving and perception imaging, SGWRD has successfully developed a camera module product based on the Onsemi 3MP AR0341AT sensor: the SG3-AR0341C-G2F-H190X.

 

 

 

This camera module, based on the AR0341AT image sensor, features a 1/3.6-inch sensor area and 2.1 µm pixel size, achieving a 150 dB high dynamic range and supporting a resolution of 1920H*1536V with 3MP. This means the camera can capture high-quality images with vibrant colors and rich details. It performs excellently in low-light environments, total signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), and HDR, effectively meeting the need for stable and high-quality images in the most demanding environments and extreme conditions.

 

The SGWRD SG3-AR0341C-G2F-H190X camera module offers a wide horizontal field of view of 190°, making it suitable for autonomous parking scenarios requiring ultra-wide-angle surround-view functions. It provides a precise image perception solution for intelligent parking space recognition and path planning.

 

In terms of design, this camera module has an overall size of just 24mm24mm16.5mm and weighs about 50g. Its ultra-Small appearance makes it easy to install and meets automotive-grade protection levels. It is especially suitable for automotive vision, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), vision fusion, high dynamic range applications, autonomous driving, and robotics.

 

 

This ultra-small and high-performance camera module enables customers to achieve high-efficiency design with lower system material costs and a more flexible architecture. In addition, to meet more customer needs, SGWRD has launched a series of camera products that can be adapted to various serializer solutions and interface protocols, including upcoming solutions from TI/Rsemi/NorelSys.
