Oppo Unveils The World’s First Under-screen Selfie Camera

Chinese mobile maker Oppo today unveiled its solution to the ubiquitous smartphone display notch – the “word’s first” Under-Screen Camera (USC).

The fullscreen display-enabling technology was demonstrated to the public at Shanghai’s Mobile World Congress, following a teaser earlier this month.

According to Oppo, the selfie camera is embedded under a section of the display that’s made of a highly transparent custom material with a special pixel structure, which enables light to pass through to the lens. The selfie camera is also said to be larger than other front-facing cameras, featuring a wider aperture lens in front of the sensor.
