Depth-of-Field SoC image sensor : MagnaChip and DxO Labs announced that they have jointly developed and are sampling a new breakthrough 3.2 megapixel SoC (System-on-a-chip) image sensor, the MC531EA, featuring DxO Digital Optics Digital Auto-Focus (DAF) Extended Depth-of-Field (EDoF) Priority, a revolutionary embedded imaging technology that eliminates the need for a physical auto-focus in camera phones. More specifically, this new generation of MagnaChip SoC sensor features full auto-focus functionality without any motor or moving parts, enabling a camera module merely equipped with fixed lens optics to deliver sharp images from the foreground through the background.
