STMicroelectronics New Full-Color Ambient Light Sensor

STMicroelectronics a leading global semiconductor provider serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, has released an innovative full-color ambient light sensor (ALS) that helps smartphones take better pictures and present more visually accurate data on screen displays. By simultaneously providing scene color temperature, ultra-violet (UVA) radiation level, and lighting frequency information, the VD6281 lets the camera correct white balance and enhance color presentation, and sets appropriate exposure times for the camera to avoid flicker artefacts and eliminate banding in pictures and videos, especially in scenes lit with contemporary LED sources. “Leveraging the company’s extensive camera system know-how, ST’s new VD6281 offers customers a state-ofthe-art multispectral ambient light sensor,” said Eric Aussedat, General Manager of ST’s Imaging Division, “Our roadmap for ALS and flicker sensors is an ideal complement to ST’s market-leading FlightSense™ Time-of-Flight (ToF) product portfolio. With a growing number of high-quality, high-resolution cameras per phone, our goal is to offer an advanced solution to assist white-balance correction and remove flicker artefacts in smartphone camera images. Mobiles equipped with VD6281 were already released in 2018, and many others will be coming soon.” With its small form factor of 1.83×1.0×0.55mm, the VD6281 is the smallest multi-spectral ambient light sensor available, allowing integration in bezel-free smartphones with small notches and inside smart watches, where a high screen ratio is at a premium. The sensor uses high-performance, direct-deposition filter material to create 6 independent color channels – Red, Green, Blue, near-Infrared, UVA and Clear for superior color-sensing capability and cutting-edge CCT (Color-Correlated Temperature) over a wide field-of-view of 120 degrees, enabling accurate assistance for white-balance algorithms, even in difficult conditions including low contrast scenes, low light levels, or exotic artificial lighting.

The company owns and markets more than 500 beverage brands across 200+ countries. Over the last 23 years, ever since its re-entry in 1993 in India, the company has gone on to establish an unmatched portfolio of beverages. The Company along with its bottling partners, through a strong network of over 2.6 million retail outlets, touches the lives of millions of consumers. Its brands are some of the most preferred and most sold beverages in the country. Coca-Cola established its manufacturing units in Kudus and Pirangut, Maharashtra, India and was looking for biometric solutions to secure their premises. They required individual servers at both locations. Their prime requirement was to restrict unauthorized user entry into secured area. Moreover, they required user punch i.e., events for both the locations separately. However, shortage of power supply ports at both the locations was a major problem. Providing separate power for door lock, biometric device and exit switch was a concern. Coca-Cola was in search of a solution where the basic requirements of user events as well as power issue for devices are solved easily. In order to overcome the challenge Matrix offered individual software platforms that act as a server for both locations – Kudus and Pirangut. In order to resolve the challenge of shortage of power supply, Matrix offered its premium range of biometric device which itself offers power to door lock and exit switch. Thus, Matrix biometric solution helped in solving both the challenges faced by Coca-Cola. COSEC biometric devices have the capability to supply power to door locks and exit switch/ reader from the device itself. The products Results Restrict unauthorized users to secure premises. Reduction in cumbersome HR tasks. Accurate maintenance of user data.
