With this lab set-up, while we work towards elevating the overall camera experience for our users, our focus is on localisation of global solutions and developing new solutions which can be globalized. What we will be developing in the India Camera lab will end up in the hands of millions of OPPO users across the globe.”

The lab is dedicated to testing phone cameras in different artificially set scenes and analysing data produced from those samples. Equipped with specialized machines to test various light sources, with different photography/videography scenarios, the lab is aimed at improving the complete performance of the smartphone by bringing more optimizations to the camera technology.

As of June 30, 2021 OPPO has applied for over 8,800 image patents worldwide and owns over 3,500 granted patents.*8/5rf+/
