【Scope of Development】

・BSP Bring-up and Device Control Optimization

- SoC support:
BSP bring-up for SoCs, mainly the Snapdragon 8/7/6 series, including power and clock design, enablement of ISP pipelines, and optimization of memory bandwidth and power consumption
- Sensor bring-up:
Configuration of MIPI CSI-2, OTP/EEPROM readout, application of lens shading, distortion, and chromatic aberration correction profiles, as well as implementation of temperature drift compensation and flicker mitigation
- Actuator control:
AF: VCM driving and hysteresis compensation
OIS: Integration with gyro and accelerometer sensors, calibration, and filter optimization for handheld and walking scenarios

・Platform Feature and Camera Driver Development

 - IP integration:
Integration of third-party image processing IPs—such as HDR, bokeh, night mode, and super-resolution—into the camera pipeline using GPU/DSP acceleration to enable real-time processing
- Android version upgrades:
Support for new Android releases, including Ultra HDR and updated privacy requirements, along with automation of CTS/VTS compatibility testing
- Custom driver development:
Implementation of proprietary sensor drivers in place of vendor-provided standard drivers, enabling support for advanced control sequences and features while ensuring stability in mass production

Image Quality Tuning and 3A Customization

- Image quality optimization:
Improvement of natural skin tone reproduction, noise–detail balance in low-light environments, white balance stability, and color matching across ultra-wide, wide, and telephoto cameras
These optimizations were performed through objective evaluations using measurement equipment in our in-house laboratory, combined with extensive subjective field testing under diverse lighting conditions
- Video performance enhancement:
Improved detail reproduction in 4K video and robust stabilization through hybrid control of OIS/EIS (optical and electronic image stabilization)
- 3A customization:
Replacement and integration of standard 3A (AE/AF/AWB) algorithms with proprietary implementations to improve scene recognition accuracy and control loop precision

・Application Development

- Lens switching functionality:
Development and implementation of seamless lens switching to deliver a smooth zoom experience
- Scene recognition features:
AI-based scene recognition with dynamic optimization of shooting parameters
- Shooting modes:
Development and implementation of professional-grade shooting modes and UI for high-end smartphone models
