With the increasing maturity of the smartphone market, imaging technology has become a key track for mobile phone manufacturers to compete. In particular, domestic mobile phones have shown unprecedented vitality in image technology innovation in recent years, pushing the entire industry into a new era of high-pixel, diversified lens configuration, and deep integration of AI algorithms. On May 21st, vivo specially held the "New Image Blueprint ∙X Series Technical Communication Conference". Yu Meng, Vice President of vivo and Vice President of Imaging, introduced the parallel strategy of vivo imaging's self-research and co-research, as well as the core self-research technology accumulation of blueprint imaging under vivo Zeiss joint imaging system.

Self-research + co-research to create a new territory of "blueprint image".

vivo has been deeply involved in the imaging track, and adheres to the concept of openness and inclusion, and has carried out in-depth cooperation with imaging giants such as Zeiss and Sony. Among them, vivo and Zeiss have cooperated for four years, and the two parties have jointly created the "vivo ZEISS Joint Imaging System", including Zeiss optical lenses, T* coating and other innovative technologies. The latest expansion of the agreement will deepen the exploration of computational optics and future imaging.

Its recently released flagship model, vivo X100 Ultra, is equipped with blueprint imaging technology, which integrates self-developed sensors, algorithms and image chips, fully demonstrating the crystallization of vivo's cognition and technology accumulation in key scenes. Blueprint image will form a vivo blue technology matrix with the blue crystal chip technology stack and the blue heart model, bringing users a full experience of science and technology.

The Blueprint Image Algorithm Matrix includes systems such as Super Sensitive Portrait, Sky Night Scene, and Fengchi Video, as well as an AI-based preimage engine. VCS biomimetic spectroscopy technology improves color reproduction and noise suppression. vivo is the only manufacturer that insists on self-developed image chips, and the X100 Ultra is equipped with the blueprint image chip V3+ combined with the VSR algorithm, which makes the stage video performance reach the industry-leading level.

The 200 million-pixel telephoto redefines the Ultra standard in the industry

When it comes to vivo's imaging technology, we have to talk about the recent new product X100 Ultra. As soon as this phone was released, it attracted much attention from the industry. Its excellent image quality has been sought after by a lot of V fans, thanks to the integration of vivo's self-developed algorithm and top optics and sensor technology. The model is equipped with LYT 900 and HP9 sensors jointly developed by Sony and Samsung, and integrates VCS bionic spectroscopy technology to make imaging closer to what the human eye sees.

In addition, the X100 Ultra telephoto lens uses fluorite-grade FCD100 glass to reduce dispersion and comply with ZEISS APO standards. The innovative 4x4 HexBayer technology solves the problem of optical crosstalk, ensures telephoto image quality, and achieves the title of "King of 20x", including 20x macro shooting, suitable for both near and far.

This phone offers four color styles, upgrading the natural color of Zeiss, enhancing the details and brightness of the dark parts, and the industry-leading color accuracy, which is suitable for professional scenarios such as medical and e-commerce. A new black and white color mode has been added for street photography. The matching humanistic street photography mode combines color style, which makes it easier to produce films.

In addition to vivo, OPPO, Xiaomi, Huawei, etc. are also frequently moving in imaging technology. All kinds of signs show that the competition of domestic mobile phone imaging technology is becoming increasingly fierce, which not only tests the technical strength of manufacturers, but also tests their insight into future trends. Only by continuous innovation can we be invincible in the fierce market competition.
