AWAIBA -
Resumen de la ponencia
The presentation will give an over view of silicon based image sensors in CCD and CMOS technology. Main focus will be on present and future technologies for CMOS image sensor technology. After introducing latest trends and resulting consequences in shrinking pixel size, increased pixel number, high dynamic range image sensors and high resolution high frame rate architectures, the presentation will elaborate on possible use cases of this technological advances which were driven by consumer electronics demands for metrology applications.
