More details about the new Sony CMOS Global Shutter sensor and the Sony market expectations

Share

Sony posted the full details fo the new CMOS Globla Shutter sensor at sony-semicon.co.jp.

ResearchinChina posted an article about the global sensor market and the forecast for 2017:

It is expected that, in 2017, the CIS market will grow 4.0%, Sony will see a growth rate of at least 10%, and most others will continue to suffer losses. In spite of being not much expected, the mobile phone market is still the most important market and Sony still monopolizes the high-end mobile phone market.

Thanks Barry for that!
