Product Summary
The VV6444C001-EC is a low cost digital camera (LCDC) chipset. The chipset provides the basis of an easy-to-use, user friendly camera, which will be equally adaptable for use by children and adults for stills photography or dual-mode use (i.e. Digital stills while untethered, and videoconferencing from the same camera). Also it incorporates ST high performance VV6444/ 6410 CIF (352 x 288 pixel) or VV6500 VGA (640 x 480 pixel) resolution CMOS sensors. A CMOS solution gives manufacturers inherent benefits, providing a highly integrated compact solution which has a low system cost, is straightforward to implement, and has low power consumption, giving long battery life.
