Why OG12B10 fits AI glasses
Smart glasses need a world-facing camera that stays thin, runs all day, and still feeds perception without emptying the temple battery. Streaming full RAW into a hot host ISP fights that brief. A sensor that keeps always-on sensing and light edge compute on the die changes the power and bandwidth story for OEM and ODM glasses teams.
OmniVision positions OG12B10 as a 12 MP stacked BSI CIS with on-chip CPU, NPU, and SRAM, plus always-on modes aimed at AI edge devices including smart glasses. Camemake’s job is the module around that die: package choice, optics, FPC, active alignment, calibration, certification support, and volume on the same lines used for other wearable cameras.
What the sensor brings to a glasses BOM
Published OmniVision figures for OG12B10 should be confirmed on the vendor datasheet before any BOM lock.

For glasses, the useful levers are always-on and low-power modes, on-sensor tasks that cut host MIPI traffic, and a 12 MP world path that can still drop to faster half-resolution modes when the product needs them. Exact duty cycle and host handoff are set per glasses SoC in the Camemake module program.
Camemake module program for glasses
Camemake is the factory for the camera module, not a sensor reseller pitch:
- World module on CSP or COB when Z-height wins, MIPI out, lens and IR-cut for the world FOV, AA and shading calibration for outdoor and indoor use.
- Bring-up notes for normal RAW, HDR combination, ULP, and always-on handoff into the glasses SoC.
- Mechanics into the temple, hinge, or brow bar with Z-height and mass owned in DFM.
- Volume path from samples into serial-tracked production lots with calibration files.
Belgium engineering support, China production, Hong Kong HQ. Design, SMT, CSP/COB, AA, calibration, and QA live in-house.
From brief to certified volume
- Brief: world FOV, host SoC and MIPI budget, temple Z-height and mass, always-on policy, certification markets.
- Configuration: lock
OG12B10(or an alternate world PN if the brief changes), CSP vs COB, optics, FPC, connector, and quote. - Samples: modules, AA reports, serials, and host bring-up for always-on, ULP, and HDR modes.
- Production: IQC, assembly, lens AA, functional and dust inspection, and serials into the production database.
- Certification support on the Camemake services path as the glasses SKU requires.
Next step
Send Camemake the world-camera brief for your glasses SKU. We will map OG12B10 into an ODM platform module or a full OEM design, then move from samples into AA and certification planning.
