"The LifeCam Cinema is our first webcam to offer widescreen HD video," said Kurt Wrisley, senior development program manager at Microsoft. "Combining OmniVision's OV9712 sensor and Microsoft's new ClearFrame Technology, the LifeCam Cinema offers best-in-class low-light performance and image quality, as well as broader field of view thanks to a 74-degree viewing angle. LifeCam Cinema will now have access to new integrations with Windows Live - Windows Live Movie Maker and Windows Live Photo Gallery - that make editing and uploading videos and photos easier."
"Webcams are used predominantly indoors where lighting conditions are often far from ideal, making image quality and low-light performance key drivers to the success of these products in the market," said Nick Nam, senior product marketing manager at OmniVision. "The LifeCam Cinema design win underscores Microsoft's continued confidence in OmniVision to deliver the highest quality digital imaging solutions for mainstream consumer products."
The OV9712 is a no-compromise 720p HD sensor offering a widescreen HD video format with display resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels, operating at 30 frames per second. The 1/4-inch OV9712 uses a 3-micron OmniPixel3-HS(TM) pixel architecture, delivering best-in-class low-light performance of 3300 mV/lux-sec. This allows the OV9712 to operate in low-light situations well below 15 lux, offering a cost effective, high-quality video solution suitable for a wide variety of applications including notebooks, netbooks, PC cameras, digital video camcorders, DSCs, mobile phones and other portable media players. OmniVision's OmniPixel3-HS pixel technology has already been proven in high quality video applications and is now available in Microsoft's LifeCam Cinema.
