ISOCELL Plus technology that enables sensors to
capture and absorb more light information for accurate
color reproduction even with sub-micrometer-sized
pixels.
In order to support smartphones with the latest display
features such as the ‘hole-in display’ or ‘notch design,’
front-facing image sensors need to minimize their size
while being able to capture high-quality images. The
1/3.4-inch 3T2 snuggly fits into a tiny module making
more space for the display. In addition, Samsung’s
Tetracell technology, which merges four pixels to work
as one, lets the 3T2 take brighter and sharper pictures
in low-light settings as the color filter array’s light
sensitivity increases to that of a 1.6μm-pixel image
sensor at 5Mp resolution.
When applied in rear-facing multi-camera settings
for telephoto solutions, the 3T2 adopts an RGB color
filter array instead of Tetracell technology. The small
size of the image sensor also reduces the height of
the tele-camera module by around seven percent when
compared to Samsung’s 1/3-inch 20Mp image sensor,
allowing more elegant smartphone designs. Compared
to a 13Mp sensor with the same module height, the
20Mp 3T2 retains 60-percent higher effective resolution
at 10x digital zoom that presents clearer and more
accurate results.
The Samsung ISOCELL Slim 3T2 is expected to be in
mass production in the first quarter of this year.
First motorised luminaire with Dynamic
Beam Shaping and smart wireless controls
formalighting, a leader in motorised architectural
lighting products, has introduced luminaires that
make aiming, directing, and shaping light easier and
faster to configure and adjust. Working together with
LensVector, a specialist in Dynamic Beam Shaping™
technology and Casambi, the market-leading developer
of wireless lighting control systems based on Bluetooth
Low Energy (BLE), formalighting’s new luminaires
prove the longstanding expectation, that solid-state
lighting capabilities will exceed those of the previous
generation of light sources.
Michael Monsonego, General Manager of formalighting,
commented: ‘We are delighted to be introducing the
world’s first motorised luminaire with LensVector’s
Dynamic Beam Shaping and Casambi’s smart wireless
control technology. We believe in utilizing the most
exciting new technologies to address the design
challenges faced by lighting professionals.’
For the first time, lighting designers and electrical
consultants can effortlessly add new lighting effects to
projects by using the new fixtures in formalighting’s
MOTOLUX range. The integrated technology within
the motorised luminaires offers smart control over the
beam angle, movements of the fixture, as well as the
intensity and the white colour tuning of the light.
LensVector’s Dynamic Beam Shaping technology turns
liquid crystal molecules into a series of modifiable micro-
lenses. The technology delivers unmatched precision
beams and dynamic dramatic effects. It allows the
beam from MOTOLUX luminaires to be adjusted along
a continuum from a less-than-ten-degree narrow spot
angle to a very wide 50-degree flood, flowing fluidly
through all the all points in between.
Casambi’s wireless control technology enables lighting
designers to take advantage of the full featured
professional lighting control platform Casambi provides
as well as the fast-growing range of ‘Casambi ready’
control devices (including sensors and switches) from
an ever-growing list of leading manufacturers.
Brent York, President and CEO of LensVector,
commented: ‘The marriage of great design and
technology allows MOTOLUX users to precisely control
the beam of light in a simple and convenient manner
via Bluetooth app on their smartphone. We’re excited
to see how the LensVector technology is being applied
to add value to LED luminaires.’
Casambi’s CEO Timo Pakkala commented: ‘Casambi’s
market-leading position in wireless lighting control is
demonstrated by this innovative lighting collaboration
with formalighting and LensVector. MOTOLUX is
part of the growing community of Casambi-ready
connected luminaires and supporting digital devices for
professional lighting schemes used in retail stores, art
