Canon is a very large company and has a large R&D department. If research points to a possible invention that will make money, they do it.

In this case, the new sensor is for surveillance work, as well as having a potential for astronomy. Its not for cinema or other 4K type work. High end surveillance is a area where the military and spy agencies are willing to shell out huge amounts.

Canon has little presence in professional video market. Video cameras are big ticket items and have lot of prestige. Could help home video recorders.
