Galaxycore, founded in September of 2003, is a fabless integrated circuit design company focusing on design and sales of CMOS image sensor products. With operations strategically located in Pudong, Shanghai, the company is slated to take advantage of proprietary cell structure and process technology along with close proximity to China’s huge domestic IC market. Based on company owned patented image sensor structure and process, Galaxycore CMOS image sensor products could see a fundamental breakthrough in performance that matches or exceeds that of CCD sensors which would allow Galaxycore to become a standout among all CMOS image sensor companies. Using their CMOS image sensor means the achievement of better picture quality with just a fraction of CCD’s cost.
