Samsung aims to develop a 600MP camera sensor that beats the human eye

Of course, introducing a 600MP camera sensor on its own can be achieved, but it will be absurdly huge and won't fit into a smartphone, and that's where the challenge begins. One way to do it is to shrink the pixel size - the HM1 and HMX sensors have 0.8μm pixel size, which until recently were the smallest available. Then Samsung introduced a sensor based on 0.7μm pixels and it hopes it can take the shrinking further. Mr Park did not commit to any deadlines, but seeing recent developments a 600MP module might come sooner than we think. Samsung unveiled the world's first 108-megapixel smartphone camera sensor back in August 2019.
