Tecno is showcasing groundbreaking camera technologies as part of its ongoing innovation drive, particularly with features designed for its flagship smartphones like the Phantom X series. These include a variable aperture inspired by a cuttlefish’s eye, a liquid lens for macro photography, and the AI-powered Universal Tone feature, which enhances skin tone rendering for diverse subjects.
The variable aperture adapts dynamically to lighting conditions, such as backlight scenarios, minimizing glare for clearer photos. Meanwhile, Tecno’s liquid lens technology, a first in the industry for periscope cameras, uses voltage to adjust curvature, achieving macro focus at just 5 cm while allowing larger sensors. The Universal Tone feature, which Tecno has refined over time, employs AI to optimize skin tones naturally and offers advanced tools like tone mapping and computational portrait enhancement.
These technologies will likely make a significant mark in the smartphone market, offering competitive alternatives to established brands. While there’s no exact timeline for their implementation in consumer products, Tecno’s presence at events like MWC 2024 suggests its readiness to push boundaries in mobile photography
