Japanese Company Designs 133 Megapixel sensor for 8K recordings
Impressive, Japanese NHK is announcing a true 133-megapixel camera sensor. The cmos-module can record video in an 8K resolution, the successor to Ultra HD at 4K. According NHK the sensor will be unveiled the 29th of May for a wide audience. The company already shared that is has the 133 MPixels sensor and a Bayer rgb color filter merged together into one package design.
By handling all RGB color information on one chip the overall size for its design will be smaller opposed to existing 8K camera's which pretty much alll are using three 33 Megapixel sensors, one sensor per color-channel.
The new cmos-sensor has a surface area of 43,2mm diagonally and can handle up-to 60 frames per second at 7680x4320 pixels. NHK did not announce a price just yet, it didn't announce which manufacturers would use the sensor either.

we dont even have 4k wide spread hell neither is 2k and they already try 8k apparently tech advance faster then the ability for the tech to even see light of day to the masses.
will 10k be announced by the time 2k becomes standard and widely available, and 12k by time 4k is?
Hell i still wating on oLED it announced how long ago? it the only tech that bring back response time to on par with crt as far as current led/lcd to goes. which what bother me about led/lcd tech to begin with.
great accomplishment none the less, be more impressed when it actual something more then accomplishment and is actual something widely available to the consumer. like so many other techs announced
Captured resolution and projected/displayed/transmitted resolution have never been the same.
Look at all the film(s) that 4K cinemas have not caught up to yet.
Of course, when they were projected (like the first 90 years of cinema) it was all good.
Cutting it down, the more photons you can capture - the better quality image.

Like i said tech that is not widely available to the public.

8k or 4k isn't good due to moviments limited (motion blur issue) and to lack of CRT.
