Pre-PMA 08: FotoNation Announces ChromaFix Technology

FotoNation ChromaFix Technology

FotoNation is unveiling its ChromaFix chromatic aberration correction technology at the PMA 08 International Convention in Las Vegas on January 31 to February 2.

The company said ChromaFix brings advanced image processing technology normally found in much higher-priced cameras to low-cost low-power devices, including consumer digital cameras and camera phones.

It will be offered in several configurations, including a software-only solution or coupled with FotoNation’s IP-Core hardware acceleration technology to achieve maximum performance.

Chromatic aberration is the purple fringing you see around high contrast edges in a photo, caused by the misalignment of the red, green and blue wave-lengths of light during focusing.
