Jennifer L. Morey

A group of Stanford University researchers has collaborated with several industry leaders to develop an imaging sensor that produces images faster, easier and cheaper than its predecessors. By moving the analog-to-digital conversion function onto the imaging chip itself, the team stumbled onto a technology that will further bolster the $1.5 billion digital imaging market. The Stanford chip is made with complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology, which allows engineers to combine the sensor with computer circuitry, thus reducing chip count and cutting production costs. Because...Read full article
