Diving into a tech-driven future with OPPO
As the world becomes more connected, OPPO is reimagining a tech-driven future with its latest array of innovations.
During the recently concluded OPPO INNO Day 2021, OPPO unveiled breakthrough technologies, showcasing its power in shaping future tech trends and even consumer behavior in the digital world. OPPO’s first foldable smartphone, OPPO Find N, received a lot of attention and so did its Air Glass and MariSilicon X. However, there are other noteworthy innovations unveiled. Here’s a quick rundown of the innovations that OPPO will be introducing and integrating in its upcoming offerings.
Elevating smartphone photography with OPPO Retractable Camera
Smartphone camera technology has rapidly evolved in recent years. Still, OPPO continues to see consumers demanding better camera tech and performance as they live a more digital lifestyle.
Introducing the OPPO Retractable Camera, OPPO provides an equivalent focal length of 52 mm (2X Optical zoom) when the camera extends, allowing for a large 1/1.56-inch SONY IMX766 sensor to be housed. It supports optical image stabilization (OIS), auto-focus (AF) and is flush with the rest of the camera module when retracted. The OPPO Retractable Camera takes just 0.6s to fully retract for drop protection and is also splash and dust resistant.
Achieving True Full-View Display with OPPO Under-screen Camera (USC)
As early as 2018, OPPO started researching and developing its under-screen camera technology. Now, the company unveiled during INNO Day the OPPO Under-screen Camera (USC), which promises to deliver both high display resolution and camera quality.
OPPO USC offers innovative pixel geometry to ensure a 400-PPI high-quality display by slightly shrinking the size of each pixel without decreasing the number of pixels. It is also equipped with consistent full-screen display accuracy. Each pixel circuit drives only 1 pixel (“1-to-1”), providing precise control over the chromaticity and brightness of the entire screen with only a 2% deviation. Lastly, OPPO USC champions the use of proprietary AI image algorithms to accurately model the diffraction and apply compensation to images.
Reimaging the future with OPPO Digital Human
OPPO Digital Human is OPPO’s self-developed hyper-realistic virtual character technology that can talk, move, and interact like a real person. Equipped with AI capabilities including semantic recognition, feature recognition, voice synthesis, lip-syncing, and dynamic expressions, OPPO Digital Human can replicate up to 30 different kinds of facial patterns and expressions, making user interaction more realistic and immersive.
Apart from being able to communicate verbally and through emotive expressions, OPPO Digital Human can also ‘see’ real humans. Based on visual recognition, it can act as a virtual fitness coach and take on more tasks in the future, such as livestream host or customer service representative.
Diving into the Virtual World with OPPO CybeReal 2.0
Augmented Reality or AR is among the experiences that OPPO is eyeing as digital interactions continue to change. Thus, OPPO combines the physical and virtual worlds with OPPO CybeReal 2.0, which unlocks limitless possibilities when it comes to future AR experiences and smart navigation systems.
Powered by OPPO’s latest spatial computing and positioning technologies, OPPO CybeReal 2.0 can provide highly accurate position and orientation in regard to the physical environment with a high interference tolerance but low power consumption. It is achieved by collecting environmental data and building a virtual replica of the real-world using smartphone cameras, Bluetooth sensors, etc.
Remote Racing powered by OPPO 5G smartphone
Much of the world has yet to experience 5G networks, but OPPO is changing the game as it powers remote racing using an OPPO 5G smartphone.
OPPO and Ericsson are currently working on a research project that is focused on developing applications that will enable 5G Remote Racing. Through 5G Remote Racing, players can remotely control a high-power RC car via 5G SA networks with OPPO 5G smartphones, experiencing the thrill of 70km/h racing anytime and anywhere. 5G Remote Racing fully utilizes the low latency and large bandwidth of 5G SA networks to achieve a minimum latency of 10ms, creating a unified connection between driver and car.
“OPPO is truly marching into the future so we’re heavily and fully investing to R&D. As we become more digital, we want to be at the forefront of introducing ground-breaking technologies and offerings that can unlock a true digital lifestyle for our users across the globe. These are only some of the innovations that we have in our pipeline, and rest assured, we will work towards making these technologies available eventually in the Philippine Market,” said Ele Yu, Marketing Director, OPPO Philippines.
