OMNIVISION and iCatch Technology announced a strategic collaboration to introduce a color pre-roll feature into the home security camera market. With pre-roll enabled users can save up to four seconds of video footage prior to the camera's motion detector triggering. The partnership involves integrating OMNIVISION's OA07600 ultra-low-power, always-on video co-processor with a pre-roll recording buffer and iCatch Technology's Vi57 artificial intelligence (AI) imaging system-on-chip (SoC) to enable continuous storage of pre-event color video footage.

This integrated chipset delivers an innovative video doorbell solution that offers exceptional traceability and visibility during any triggering event. iCatch Technology's Vi 57 is an imaging SoC with ultra-fast capture and edge AI capability to improve the general usability of video doorbells. Taking the pre-roll footage from OMNIVISION's O A07600 co-processor, Vi57 SoC can seamlessly combine it with post-event footage into one video with minimal data loss.

Moreover, with image processing, the Vi57 SoC is capable of providing high-quality video in full color, even under extreme low-light conditions. With this innovation, color information can be utilized to provide users with a better understanding and enhanced traceability of the incident. The cooperation between iCatch Technology and OMNIVISION ensures that a battery-powered video doorbell with the color pre-roll feature delivers an enhanced user experience and elevates the security standard of the video doorbell to new heights.

This color pre-roll video doorbell solution jointly developed by iCatch Technology and iCatch Technology is in mass production now and available for customer engagement.
