Taking full advantage of the Arctic 416 features, such as its inherent accuracy and un-matched response time, much simpler autofocus strategies can be applied to obtain sharp, crisp focus in time never reached before, well under 500 ms. Samples are available now, and mass production will start in December this year. Complete, low BOM reference designs will be provided to support integration and shorten time to market.
