An image signal processor is a processor that takes the raw data from a camera sensor and converts it into a workable image. The image signal processors are specially designed for various applications such as measurement of pattern and image recognition, noise reduction, auto white-balance & color correction, color interpolation, lens shading correction, defect pixel correction, gamma correction, and local tone mapping. Image signal processors provide the advanced features such as auto focus that automatically adjusts the sharpness of the image, which improves the image definition.
Image signal processors manufacturers and solution provider provides a wide range of imaging solutions and continues to enhance customers products with different product categories such as CCD image sensors, CMOS photonic sensors, processors and others. The providers of image signal processors solution are focusing on expanding their product portfolio by introducing new products for increasing customer satisfaction. For instance, In January 2019, Arm Holdings launched new generation of image signal processors the Arm Mali-C52 and Mali-C32 ISPs in response to the demand for real-time higher image quality in IoT devices.
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has disrupted many industries, including the image signal processors market. Continuous development & implementation of image signal processing methods would be highly valuable for the enterprises to collect and analyze data in real time. The existing situation owing to the outbreak of the epidemic will inspire key players for ongoing development in field of image processing is expected to replace the traditional text with images, 3-D images and real time video.
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the production and supply-chains of the image signal processors in East Asia and South Asia & Pacific regions. Many manufacturers have halted production, or were operating with low production volumes, which as decrease the market growth, due to low end-user demands. However, with regards to the various applications of the image signal processors across various industries, the adoption has not been impacted much, and the market is expected to recover soon by Q1-Q2 2021.
