2 Megapixel CMOS Camera Chip from OmniVision : OmniVision Technologies, Inc., a world leading supplier of CMOS image sensors, today announced that volume production of its 2 megapixel OV2640 CameraChip product is well under way. Large quantities are already being shipped to several customers, including a major European handset maker. The OV2640 enables a very small 2 megapixel fixed focus camera module that fits the popular 8 x 8 mm sockets used in most 1.3 megapixel camera phones allowing for an easy upgrade. "Bringing the OV2640 to volume production gives OmniVision a strong competitive edge in the migration of today's camera phones towards providing digital camera quality pictures," said Jess Lee, Vice President for OmniVision.
