vivo V1—vivo’s first self-developed professional imaging chip

super wide angle、The emergence of periscope zoom,Break through people's imagination of mobile phone photography optics again and again。 Facing complex light、Dark light scene、Extreme night scenes and numerous video shooting scenes,Mobile phone's image computing power、The power consumption of crystal cells needs to be further upgraded and evolved。

finally,Vivo cooperates in depth with mobile phone SoC manufacturers,Lasted 24 months、More than 300 people invested in research and development,The answer is given using self-developed professional image crystal V1。

As a fully customized special specification integrated crystal element,Professional image chip V1 cooperates with main crystal,Compatible with effect experience,Have high computing power、low latency、Low power consumption characteristics。

On the road of mobile phone images,Vivo's technological breakthroughs in ultimate imaging are constantly exploring。 The debut of professional image crystal V1,It is the first step in vivo's crystal cell strategy,In the future, vivo will conduct more comprehensive exploration in the crystal field,Expand for specific scenarios,Finally achieve the full-scene goal。

Ultra-low dispersion high-transparency glass lens breaks through the ceiling of mobile phone optical devices

Due to space limitations,Taking pictures on your mobile phone needs to make a further leap,Upgrade the lens,More difficult。 Vivo invests huge R&D costs this time,After multiple rounds of verification with Zeiss team,Finally overcome the craft、Technical limitations such as yield rate,High-spec glass lenses are realized on mobile phones,High light transmittance、Ultra Low Dispersion、Stable and strong effect。 It greatly reduces the appearance of glare ghosts during night scene shooting。

Compared with plastic lenses,Glass lenses have natural low dispersion advantages。 Vivo's ultra-low dispersion high-transparency glass lens,Further reduce dispersion,On the authoritative indicator of dispersion ability,The industry's highest score of 81.6 was obtained by breaking through the mobile phone lens Abe's value.,Compared with professional camera lenses,Effectively solve the purple edges of high contrast scenarios、Fake color and other issues。

Ultra-low dispersion high-transparency glass lenses also achieve higher purity,The center transmittance is increased to a maximum of 95%。 Adopt AOA dynamic optical quasi-science process,Reduction of clarity caused by adjusting lens thickness error and lens eccentricity error,Ensure the optical quality of the final lens。

Multi-coating suppresses glare ghost shadows,Together with Zeiss to set high industry standards

Since its birth,Zeiss T* coating has always been Zeiss's talent,It is also a powerful guarantee for high-quality imaging。 Thanks to this,Vivo Zeiss joins hands to apply advanced coating technology to mobile phone lenses,Brings imaging effects comparable to professional cameras。

Facing traditional industry problems such as glare and ghosting,vivo innovatively introduces SWC coating technology。 Based on the principle of bionics,Fully suppress reflected light,Reduce the reflectivity to 0.1% at a minimum,Significantly improve purity。 also,vivo exclusive first launch of ALD atomic layer deposition process,Form a nano-scale coating on ultra-high glass lens,Further reduce light reflection。

The problem of petal ghosting is also a shadow that cannot be removed by taking pictures on your phone.。 Vivo uses pigment spin coating technology in lenses,Solve the adhesion problem between pigments and blue glass,Coating thickness up to 2um,After more than 10 different process parameters debugging,Finally mass production。 It can be said,Whether it is craftsmanship or material,Vivo is the leading industry in mobile phone optics。
