The Mi5s Plus was announced in September along with the Mi5s, equipped with respectable features, 2.5D edge screen from 5,7 inches with full HD resolution (1920 × 1080 pixels), 821 snapdragon processor, 4 / 6GB RAM and a ROM memory from 64 / 128GB. In addition to all this the Mi5s Plus boasts an enviable record, is in fact the first to use Qualcomm's Clear Sight technology on its dual camera. So you will wonder what novelty brings the use of this new feature, well we will explain in detail.
Clear Sight in brief
The use of Clear Sight technology is a solution adopted by many mobile phone companies, who wish to implement a dual camera on their smartphones, to improve the quality of photographs. The idea behind the Clear Sight project is to imitate the cones and rods, the photoreceptors found on the retina of the human eye. Cones capture color (red, green and blue), but require brightly lit environments. The rods, on the other hand, allow vision in low light conditions, but not color perception. The Clear Sight combines the best of both to achieve greater contrast, less noise and capture more detail. The system developed by Qualcomm therefore uses two sensors of the same size, in which one captures images in color (imitating cones), and the other captures images in black and white (imitating rods). Since the color-detecting filter has been removed, in the monochrome sensor, it absorbs more light (up to three times) than the color sensor. This is the reason why you get sharper and more defined images.
In addition, thanks to the Clear Sight algorithm and two Qualcomm Spectra ISPs (Image Signal Processors), the two shots are combined instantly (with a zero delay in closing the shutter) to obtain superior quality photos, especially in low conditions. lighting. In the Mi5s Plus model, for the Clear Sight module, Xiaomi has chosen to use two Sony 13 megapixel cameras (f / 2.0, phase detection autofocus, dual-LED flash). Today, many high-end mobile phones use dual cameras such as the Huawai P9 or the Iphone 7. but soon also the budget mobile phones will use this technology and will have a dual camera, one of the first is the Honor 6X.
