OmniVision completes acquisition of CDM Optics : OmniVision Technologies reported today that it has completed the previously announced acquisition of privately held CDM Optics, and that CDM has become a wholly owned subsidiary of OmniVision. All of CDM's 18 employees are expected to stay with CDM at its existing location in Boulder, Colorado. CDM is the exclusive licensee of a patented technology, known as Wavefront Coding, that substantially increases the performance of an imaging system by increasing the depth of field and/or correcting optical aberrations within the image. Wavefront Coding is expected to significantly reduce the size and complexity of the auto-focus function on future camera modules utilizing OmniVision sensors.
