A CMOS-based chip that records the intensities of light as variable charges similar to a CCD chip. Although initially used in less expensive digital cameras, the quality of CMOS sensors has improved ...

Innovations in CMOS image sensor (CIS) technology continue to enhance digital imaging landscape. While the demand has been driven by smartphone makers, leveraging enhanced photo-taking capabilities to ...

How does a camera see the image it is about to capture? If it's a digital camera, the microcontroller “sees” the image ultimately and works its magic by recording and manipulating the analog image ...

The development of high dynamic range (HDR) CMOS image sensors represents a significant advancement in imaging technology. These sensors combine the intrinsic advantages of CMOS circuits—such as low ...

If you need to measure a distance, it is tempting to reach for the ubiquitous ultrasonic module like an HC-SR04. These work well, and they are reasonably easy to use. However, they aren’t without ...

Sony has unveiled a new type of stacked CMOS sensor that uses "two-layer transistor pixels" to double the light gathering capability. Typical image sensors have the light-sensitive photodiodes and ...

Canon's new SPAD sensors work by amplifying a single photon that enters the sensor's pixels into large amounts of electrical energy pulses. This allows the camera to see objects in areas with small ...

Teledyne e2v has launched the Lince5M™ NIR, a high-speed CMOS image sensor designed to perform in both visible and near-infrared wavelengths, catering to various commercial, industrial, and medical ...

Teledyne e2v, a part of Teledyne Technologies [NYSE: TDY] announces the release of its Hydra3D+, a new Time-of-Flight (ToF) CMOS image sensor which incorporates 832 x 600 pixel resolution and is ...
