Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia The sanctions imposed by the United States (US) have had a lasting impact on Huawei. The company can no longer use lenses from Sony.

Sony and Huawei’s relationship broke down when the Chinese company received sanctions from the US. Sony stopped shipping, which ultimately impacted two companies.

Last year, Sony obtained a new license to supply camera sensors to Huawei. However, it seems that Sony’s supply to Huawei will not last long.

Losing Sony doesn’t upset Huawei. The technology giant is reportedly developing its own CMOS image sensor, quoted Gizmodo, Tuesday (3/10/2023).

From the information quoted Gizmodo from Weibo, the development is from wafer to chip.

If this news is true, it means the Mate 60 series will be the last to use a Sony sensor. In the future, Huawei will release its own sensors.

Gizmodo reported the possibility of the P70 series and Mate 70 series being the introduction of the latest CMOS image sensors developed by Huawei.

It’s not just Huawei that is developing CMOS. Many Chinese manufacturers apparently did the same thing because they did not want to depend on American technology and its allies.

For example, Omnivision will launch a 200 MP CMOS sensor. The company explains that the sensor is called OVBOB with a resolution of 16384×12288 pixels, 0.61μm, and a large sensor of 1/1.28 inches.

The sensor made by Omnivision is also said to be able to produce 12.5 million pixels after 16:1 binning or the equivalent of 2.44 μm.
