Kodak says sensor boosts camera power in phones

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Photography company Eastman Kodak Co. on Monday introduced chips that can boost the picture-taking power in mobile phones, and help manufacturers cut development costs.

Kodak says its KAC-05020 Image Sensor is the world's first 1.4 micron, 5-megapixel device that allows capture of high quality images in small cameras, with quality that equals what is available from current devices using larger, 1.75 micron pixel designs.

"It will help manufacturers reduce their costs...because of the size - you can put more chips onto one wafer, for the same amount of money," said Fas Mosleh, CMOS Sensors Marketing Director at Kodak. "This is the kind of technology that can help upgrade all camera phones to a real camera."
