Seoul, South Korea — Samsung Electronics (005930. KS) has introduced three novel mobile image sensors to optimize the quality of smartphone cameras across all dimensions.

The South Korean technology conglomerate has recently introduced three new mobile image sensors: the ISOCELL HP9, ISOCELL GNJ, and ISOCELL JN5. 

These sensors have been designed for integration into smartphones' primary and secondary cameras. 

The new product line includes a 200-megapixel sensor and two 50-megapixel sensors.

The ISOCELL HP9, comprising 200 million 0.56-micrometer pixels, is regarded as the inaugural 200-megapixel smartphone telephoto sensor. 

The new sensor exhibits enhanced light sensitivity and autofocus performance compared to its predecessor.

Samsung's ISOCELL GNJ, a 50-megapixel sensor with 1.0-micrometer pixels, incorporates dual pixel technology and an in-sensor zoom function. 

The company asserts that the device produces more explicit video footage and higher-resolution images.

The ISOCELL JN5, another 50-megapixel sensor with 0.64-micrometer pixels, is designed for versatility across main and sub cameras. 

The sensor displays an improvement in low-light performance and autofocus capabilities.

Jesuk Lee, Executive Vice President and CTO of Samsung's System LSI Sensor Business Team has indicated that the company will persist in establishing industry standards and advancing technological frontiers with its new series of mobile sensors that integrate the latest innovations.

Samsung has indicated that the new sensors facilitate communication between the main and sub-cameras, providing a consistent photographic experience across all angles.
