OPPO self-developed NPU chip released, a new generation of smart glasses on the same stage
Nov 08, 2022| OPPO self-developed NPU chip released, a new generation of smart glasses on the same stage
The two-day OPPO INNO DAY came to a close today, at which OPPO officially unveiled its first self-developed chip, the Mariana MariSilicon X. This is OPPO's first independent design, independent research and development of the image dedicated NPU chip. It is understood that Mariana MariSilicon X is the world's first mobile independent NPU using 6nm advanced manufacturing process, with four major technological breakthroughs: Unprecedented AI computing power efficiency, industry-leading Ultra HDR, lossless real-time RAW computing, and RGBW Pro to maximize sensor capabilities.
With four major technological breakthroughs, Mariana MariSilicon X can fully serve OPPO's customized computing image needs in the future, helping OPPO truly realize vertical integration capability on image links. OPPO says the Mariana MariSilicon X already has the same level of AI computing power as Apple's iPhone 13 Pro Max. The next generation of OPPO Find X will debut with the Mariana X chip and will be released in the first quarter of 2022.
In addition, OPPO also officially launched a new generation of smart glasses, OPPO Air Glass. It is reported that OPPO Air Glass has a research and development cycle of three years. OPPO believes that smart glasses should have four major features: beautiful, lightweight, universal and instrumental. In the future, smart glasses will become the "third screen" after mobile phones and watches.
OPPO Air Glass adopts monocular split-type solution, and the customized frame can be adapted to various optical lenses. Regardless of whether you are nearsighted or not, you can have your own choice, so that there will be no obstacles in daily wearing. The main body weighs less than 30 grams, and the thickness of the lens is only 1.3 millimeters. The lenses use thin diffractive optical waveguide technology to achieve an average entry brightness of 1,400 nits. Silicon-based Micro LED displays with a single pixel of just 4 microns can achieve a maximum brightness of 3 million nits. The self-developed Spark micro-optical machine is only the size of a coffee bean. In a tiny space of less than 0.5 cubic cm, there are 5 pieces of customized high-resolution light-permeability glass, which can effectively improve the light transmittance and reduce stray light interference.
