A Bayer array, or Bayer filter, is what lets a digital camera take color photos. It’s an array of tiny color filters that sit on top of a camera’s CCD. The filter makes it so that each … ...

If you’ve ever dreamed of building a proper spectrometer, it looks like the ESPROS epc901 CCD sensor is absolutely worth your attention. It’s fast, sensitive, easy to interface with, and at ...

TOKYO ” CCD image sensors and CMOS sensors each have advantages, including CCD's higher sensitivity and lower power consumption for CMOS. Both characteristics are required for mobile applications.

This year’s Nobel Prize for Physics has been awarded, with the inventors of the CCD getting recognition for the invention which enabled modern digital photography. It has taken a while: Whilst ...

The KAI-01050 progressive-scan interline transfer CCD image sensor has a 1,024 × 1,024 array of 5.5-micron pixels that is 45% smaller than its predecessors but still retain dynamic range, quantum ...

If you spend a lot of time reading about cameras, you’re probably familiar with the terms CMOS sensor and CCD sensor, as they describe the two most popular digital camera sensor types. You probably ...

Wait, excuse us, did we say 8 megapixels? We meant to say 10. That's right, megapixel excess moves onward and upward as Sharp has unveiled a new 10 megapixel CCD for consumer cameras.

To understand the current hype around vintage CCD cameras, we have to look at the few technical benefits they do hold over CMOS sensor cameras. The differences boil down to lighting and stability.
