The camera module is closely related to the basic knowledge of many electronic components. In terms of disciplines and contents involved, image data acquisition or image processing (hardware configuration) can be difficult in the camera module, because the camera module involves optics, such as color, white balance, color space, lens, etc.
The camera module involves the basic principles of sensors, such as the principles and differences between CMOS and CCD; It involves difficult problems in electronics, such as the transmission and storage of a large amount of data, and the selection of the main control chip of the camera module, such as the recognition speed and image processing ability of the camera module; Moreover, the camera module involves the layout of the circuit board; It involves algorithm problems such as encoding and decoding of camera module images, which are often encountered by camera module manufacturers when they manufacture products.
Especially when the pixels of the camera module are increasing, these problems will become more prominent. Therefore, objectively speaking, if you want to involve the camera module industry, you need to know these problems. The engineers of the camera module manufacturer are different from those of the terminal equipment manufacturer. Maybe the terminal equipment engineer may be understanding the camera module, and may only need to know the interface and pixels of the camera module Chips and other common sense, but the camera module manufacturers need to know more.
When the terminal equipment customizes products with the camera module manufacturer, it will involve a lot of basic knowledge of the camera module. Some problems, such as chip selection, image processing, face recognition speed, board design, need to be solved by the camera module manufacturer.
