SMK Electronics Corporation, U.S.A. Introduces New Automotive-Grade 5 Megapixel RGB/IR Camera at CES 2023

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SMK Electronics Corporation, U.S.A. today announced the introduction of the company’s RGB-IR ultra-high resolution 5-megapixel automotive grade camera. Designed for in-cabin monitoring of seat occupancy, the RGB-IR gathers significantly greater detail in both normal and low light conditions; and, with its comparatively smaller footprint, replaces the dual RGB and IR cameras traditionally used for this purpose.

“With the ongoing transition to electrically powered vehicles, the integration of advanced technology into new car builds is not only at an all-time high, but growing exponentially,” said Paul Evans, President of SMK Electronics, U.S.A. “And nowhere is this more evident than in the design of automobile optical systems, with the integration of in-cabin cameras now standard across newer models and brands. In this spirit of innovation, SMK is pleased to introduce our new RGB/IR 5-Megapixel Automotive-Grade Camera at CES 2023."

“Gathering significantly greater detail in both normal and low lighting conditions, the RGB/IR camera is ideal for OMS (Occupancy Monitoring System) and DMS (Driver Monitoring System) roles,” continued Mr. Evans. “Its higher resolution and greater RGB color sensitivity, combined with a relatively small footprint, make the RGB/IR a perfect single camera replacement for the dual RGB and IR camera sub-systems now in use.”
