Remember the vivo V1 chip released more than half a year ago? The vivo's own image chip brings 1080P 60FPS recording real-time noise reduction and MEMC dynamic compensation capabilities to the X70 Pro+ and later high-end products, and reduces a lot of power consumption for clear previews of low-light shots. The combination of V1 chip and a variety of imaging technologies brings vivo a unique high-end value of mobile phone imaging.
Nowadays, vivo has brought an iterative product vivo V1+, which makes people see the mobile phone manufacturer's more pursuit of imaging technology. V1+ continues to take the route of specific scenes, focusing on lower power consumption and faster speed to meet the three types of algorithms of 3D real-time stereoscopic night scene noise reduction, MEMC interpolation and AI super scoring (AISR). V1+ continues the general orientation of the V1 chip, but can reduce the power consumption by about 72% compared to SoC processing.
Nowadays, it is no longer the era that only chips can do a good job, and it can make full use of chip performance, apply it in the most suitable scenario, and organically combine with other hardware capabilities to say that the chip is used well. Therefore, the V1+ chip and vivo's other imaging hardware and software understanding and technology accumulation together constitute a high-end imaging system with a fairly comprehensive capability coverage.
vivo has fully explored the potential of MediaTek's popular top flagship chip Tianji 9000, and after in-depth cooperation between the two sides, the running score of Tianji 9000 can exceed 1.07 million points, with better stability and endurance performance. Vivo allows the V1+ chip interpolation function to participate in the game experience improvement, GPU Fusion technology implements DLSS-like game scoring on mobile phones, and there are depth adjustments for hardcore players.
Vivo said that due to the large investment of Vivo and MediaTek, a total of more than 300 people have participated in the research and development cycle of more than 350 days, and the V1+ chip can have excellent performance on Tianji 9000 and other flagship platforms. For example, night video shooting can become quite bright, front camera and ultra-wide angle brightness and noise reduction are better performance, and the V1+ chip can drive the 90 frame/120 frame interpolation display of popular games.
Similar to the previous V1 chip release, vivo also spoiled the image experience progress that will appear on the next high-end mobile phones: continuing the vivid, bright, textured color style, color accuracy has been further improved, providing functions such as "smart white plus black minus" and "smart AWB" to make taking photos simple, XDR Photo technology fills the gap in common picture formats that are difficult to store high dynamic range information.
Portrait shooting has always been a popular scene for mobile phone images, whether it is recording life moments, selfies or large group photos, etc., it is indispensable to take people clearly and look good. Vivo portrait shooting adapts to hundreds of scenes, while adhering to the 50mm focal length and zeiss classic style, introducing AI skin technology when processing photos, supporting 30 people to take a large group photo of texture portraits to make the portraits in the picture clear and three-dimensional.
Previously, vivo built-in horizon shooting capabilities in high-end products, no matter how to rotate the phone, it can discharge a fairly stable video picture. This time vivo brought a horizon photo, combined with attitude detection and stabilization for picture adjustment, you can correct the angle and other reasons caused by the deformation of the building, portrait photos into horizontal and vertical, equivalent to improving the film rate to save a lot of post-work.
In summary, vivo's mobile phone high-end imaging capabilities evolution path is quite firm, from the X series mobile phone image specifications upgrade, in-depth cooperation with ZEISS, the introduction of self-developed chip capabilities to cross-platform software and hardware technology applications, all of which are moving in the direction of all-round improvement of comprehensive image strength, and have seen results in low-light shooting, portraits and other scenes that can be perceived.
In the future of vivo's in-depth self-developed chips and continuing to expand the advantages of imaging system software and hardware, we are expected to see more surprises and breakthroughs.
