Tessera Technologies unveils wafer level camera

MUMBAI: Tessera Technologies, Inc. has announced OptiML WLC also known as OptiuL WLC, a new wafer-level camera.

This technology is yet another introduction in the range of miniaturized cameras in mobile phones, personal computers, security cameras, and other electronics.

 

Tessera‘s OptiML WLC technology makes it possible for cameras to be manufactured at the wafer level thus reducing the size.

According to Tessera‘s chairman, president and CEO Bruce McWilliams, " With our acquisitions of Shellcase, Digital Optics and Eyesquad, we have assembled what we believe to be the strongest portfolio of camera optic technologies in the marketplace. OptiML wafer level camera technology represents a significant leap forward in the development of highly integrated, lower cost optics for consumer and other electronics."

 
OptiML WLC technology also reduces the size of the camera to a minimum, delivering up to 50 per cent size reductions over conventional camera modules in camera phones today. Tessera‘s recently acquired Eyesquad technology can be easily integrated into the OptiML WLC solution, providing advanced auto-focus and digital optical zoom without the use of moving parts, states an official release.
