STMicroelectronics VG6640

This is a high performance, high dynamic range 1.3 megapixel image sensor. Designed for automotive, security and other demanding outdoor applications, the device offers supreme low light performance and numerous safety integrity features. An embedded Bayer and monochrome data pre-processor integrates a wide range of image enhancement functions, designed to ensure high image quality.

An advanced synchronization facility allows stereo and multi-camera systems to work synchronously, minimizing system latency and motion temporal mismatch artifacts.
