The OG05D delivers 146 fps, HDR and NIR performance in a compact 2.2µm pixel design for industrial vision systems.
OMNIVISION announced the industry’s first 2.2-micron (µm) 5-megapixel (MP) global shutter (GS) high dynamic range (HDR) CMOS image sensor that is purpose-built for industrial machine vision applications, such as barcode scanners, factory automation, compact AI cameras and humanoid robotics, especially data-collection devices for robotics training. At a maximum output of 146 frames per second (fps) in linear mode, the new OG05D is 143% faster than previous-generation sensors.
The OG05D GS sensor combines Nyxel near-infrared (NIR) technology, HDR, low power consumption and a compact optical format in a stacked backside-illuminated (BSI) sensor design—delivering an optimized imaging solution for industrial and robotic vision systems where imaging performance, sensor size and power efficiency are essential. It delivers high dynamic range in a single exposure, reducing motion artifacts associated with multi-exposure HDR approaches. It overcomes the imaging challenges faced by traditional non-HDR sensors through its industry-leading RGB-IR on-chip processing and imaging performance, combined with higher NIR quantum efficiency (QE) and low noise enabled by dual conversion gain (DCG). Additionally, it is 30% smaller than previous-generation sensors.
The OG05D sensor comes in a 1/2.5-inch optical format and the package size is 6.6µm x 5.3µm, ideal for robotic, industrial and embedded AI camera designs. DCG HDR provides high-quality image capture across scenes containing both bright highlights and dark shadows. Enhanced HDR capability improves object detection and navigation in real-world situations where lighting conditions frequently change, including in factories, warehouses and the outdoors.
Key features of the OG05D GS sensor:
- 2.2µm 5MP BSI global shutter with the industry’s smallest >70dB HDR-capable pixel
- Nyxel technology enhances NIR QE at 850nm (>55%) and 940nm (>35%)
- 30% power reduction from previous-generation 5MP product
- HDR support: 60 fps DCG single-exposure HDR on-chip combination; 60 fps 3-exposure (3s) HDR on-chip combination
- Supports RGB, mono and RBG-IR
- RGB-IR on-chip re-mosaic
The OG05D sensor is available now for sampling and will be in mass production in Q4 2026.
