Sony bets on mobile sensors
  • Sony CEO spoke about the company's super successful digital sensor business and he mentioned that most of the images you see today on social networks and broader use Sony image sensors. Yes iPhone 6 uses one too.

    Mr Hirai said that this fiscal year Sony is investing 1.5 billion Euro, five times what they invested last year. They want to meet the increasing demand for high end image sensors in the smartphone market. We heard that there was shortage of the high end sensors this year, as most vendors want to get their hands on them. They make phone photos rather great in the nice lighting environment. Good sensor helps you create great photos with your phone.
