Image Processor

Kneron's unique Image Signal Processor (ISP) can be exploited with mainstream lenses and sensors, upholding the sensor's fidelity for photoelectric conversion, allowing images and videos to display ultra-fine details, true tonal layering, and lower noise.

Image Processor
  • “HDR” technology conveys more exquisite details with up to 120dB contrast scale of scenes, revealing a richer and truly realistic visual experience. 
  • The "Smart Edge Enhancement" technology can improve localized image blur (out of focus) caused by lens and sensor misalignment.
  • "Multi-lens and sensor ISP"  technology compensates for color and brightness deviations in stitched and/or fused video from multiple lens and sensor sources.

Enhanced HDR Quality for Dynamic Scenes

Enhanced HDR Quality for Dynamic Scenes

  • Support Line-based (2/3/4 exposures) for reducing motion artifacts compared to frame-based approach.
  • Support major SONY/OV/OnSemi sensors, up to 120dB.
  • Motion Compensated Fusion (MCF) is adopted to further reduce motion artifacts, incorporating motion predictions of the camera/objects in the video over multi-exposure frames.

Advanced DIS

Digital Image Stabilization (DIS) can reduce video shaking effectively and provide smoother viewing and improved bitrates for recording and streaming.

Advanced DIS
  • DIS supports up to 4 DOF (X/Y/Z shifts + Z-yaw) in contrast to traditional X/Y-shifting DIS.
  • Dedicated HW-acceleration engine for camera motion estimation & compensations.
  • Support Resolution & FPS: up to 5M@30fps.
