The current smartphones are becoming smarter and smarter. However, there is one area which bothers most. That is battery life. What if there is a option to fully charge the battery in just 15 minutes? Answer is OPPO’s Super VOOC Flash Charge technology.

In the ongoing Mobile World Congress 2016, oppo unveiled Super VOOC Flash Charge technology which is said to fully charge 2500 mAh battery in just 15 minutes. According to company Super VOOC Flash Charge uses 5V low-voltage pulse-charge algorithm which ensures low-temperature charge that’s safe for the battery and dynamically regulating the current to charge the phone in the shortest time possible. This technology works when all-new algorithm pairs with a customizedsuper battery, a new adapter, cable, connector made using premium, military-grade materials.Super VOOC Flash Charge supports Micro USB or type-C interfaces, in line with the global standard.

SmartSensor Image Stabilization: The first ever sensor-based, pixel-level optical image stabilizer

In the event, Oppo also unveiled a new image stabilization technology called SmartSensor Image Stabilization which company claims first ever sensor-based, pixel-level optical image stabilizer.

There are two types of optical image stabilization. One is lens-based and another one sensor-based.  Due to size limitations of smartphone, all previous technologies are based on lens based stabilization. However, MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical system)  manages to bring sensor based stabilization to smartphones. Oppo claims that SmartSensor is the first-ever sensor-based solution for smartphones, as well as the smallest optical image stabilizer of any kind in the world!.

The newly showcased Oppo’s SmartSensor technology addresses of the major flaws of lens based method- not reducing shake during roll. According to press release,  SmartSensor provides image stabilization on three axes, pitch, yaw and the all-important roll. Making split-second adjustments with its comb-shaped monocrystalline silicon MEMS, SmartSensor achieves full three-axis image stabilization in a mere 15 milliseconds.

Oppo’s Smartsensor is power efficient as well. According company SmartSensor uses a voltage-driven sensor, reducing power consumption to as low as 10 milliwatts, 50 times less than the power consumption of lens-based solutions.

Lens-based systems, with their increased power consumption, can quickly heat up the module, affecting image quality, especially during extended photo shoots. But the low power consumption of the fine-tuned MEMS keeps temperatures low and preserves image quality even in long shooting sessions.Meanwhile, whereas lens-based image stabilizers generally have a precion of between 3 and 5 μm, SmartSensor remains precise to a vibration of just 0.3μm. The size of a pixel is usually larger than 1 μm, meaning that SmartSensor is the world’s first pixel-level image stabilize.

With SmartSensor, OPPO smartphones become like pocket-sized SLR cameras, able to capture life’s beautiful moments in breathtaking detail. Even when lighting conditions aren’t ideal, such as at a party or concert, SmartSensor ensures clear and bright images by allowing a longer exposure time.

At MWC, OPPO also announced a growing emphasis on its “Camera Phone” strategy. Under the new strategy, OPPO plans to strengthen a well-deserved association between OPPO and great photography. Through continued refinement of its photography platform as well as new innovations like SmartSensor, OPPO aims to bring users technology that will allow them to better record their lives and share their experiences, so they can capture every moment as it really is: sharp, vivid and bright.
