OSRAM Opto Semiconductors Inc.
Mouser Electronics, a leading global distributor specializing in the introduction of new electronic components and industrial automation products, has announced the availability of the ams OSRAM Mira016 CMOS image sensor. This compact, high-sensitivity sensor is poised to accelerate innovation across industrial, robotics, wearable, and machine vision markets.
The Mira016 is a 0.16-megapixel global shutter CMOS image sensor, optimized for both 2D and 3D applications. Built on advanced backside illumination (BSI) technology, it boasts a pixel size of 2.79 µm and excels in near-infrared (NIR) and visible light environments. With a footprint of just 1.8 mm², it delivers a powerful performance in an exceptionally small form factor — a key requirement for modern AR/VR wearables, eye/head/hand tracking systems, and compact industrial vision platforms.
Key Industry Implications
The Mira016 represents a growing trend toward miniaturized, low-power, and high-accuracy vision sensors in both consumer and industrial markets. With an integrated MIPI CSI-2 interface, the sensor ensures seamless compatibility with a wide range of processors and FPGAs, opening the door to flexible embedded system designs.
What sets this sensor apart is its low power consumption paired with enhanced NIR sensitivity, enabling longer detection ranges without increasing system power budgets — a crucial factor for battery-powered applications like mobile face recognition, biometric authentication at payment terminals, and wearable health tech.
Enabling Smarter Systems
The Mira016 further distinguishes itself with programmable registers, context switching, on-chip processing, and robust power and thermal management features. These advanced capabilities support real-time performance and system efficiency, making the sensor highly attractive for developers working on identity verification, 3D depth sensing, and energy-efficient embedded systems.
A Broader Trend in Vision Sensing
Mouser’s release of the Mira016 aligns with a broader industry shift toward integrated imaging solutions that combine compact design, edge intelligence, and multi-spectrum sensitivity. As demand grows for intelligent devices that can see, sense, and respond — from autonomous robots to wearable XR headsets — sensors like the Mira016 are becoming foundational components.
With industry players increasingly seeking sensors that are both customizable and power-conscious, the Mira016 exemplifies how CMOS technology continues to evolve to meet emerging application challenges in AI-driven, vision-enhanced systems.
