CCD sensors News
CCD Sensors Remain Competitive with Broadening Appeal
Jun 26, 2015 — CCDs continue to be the sensor of choice for applications such as astronomy and spectroscopy. With future investment, we can expect improvements in sensor architecture, resolution, pixel size and depth, as well as readout speeds. Over the last few decades charge-coupled device (CCD) sensors have been slowly overtaken by CMOS sensors for applications ranging from mobile phone cameras to surveillance. But CCDs still have a lot to offer, particularly where extreme sensitivity and long
Big Impact: Optics and Photonics In Space
Nov 1, 2013 — In the movie Gravity, debris from an exploded satellite threatens everything in its path, from space-walking astronauts to the International Space Station. Dr. Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) exhibits an inspiring tenacity, solving one catastrophe after...
CCD Sensors Tailored to Space Applications
Nov 1, 2013 — Designing image sensors for the ESA’s Euclid mission demonstrates the importance of customization for specialty uses and harsh environments. Adapting commercial electronic parts for space applications usually consists of little more than the...
E2v Inks Contract with Russian Academy of Sciences
ZHUKOVSKY, Russia, Aug. 28, 2013 — e2v Technologies Ltd. of Chelmsford, England, has signed a multimillion-pound contract with the Russian Academy of Sciences to supply an imaging subsystem for the World Space Observatory-Ultraviolet (WSO-UV).
Photonics Finding Niche in Device Manufacturing
Jul 1, 2013 — The global medical device market grew just 3 percent in 2012, reaching $331 billion dollars, according to health care market research firm Kalorama Information. The organization blames the reduced growth rate on a challenged health care market in...
Image Sensor is Transparent, Circuit-Free
LINZ, Austria, Feb. 20, 2013 — A flat, transparent and circuit-free polymer sheet may provide an entirely new way of capturing images, or may act as a touch-free user interface that could seamlessly overlay a television or other display technology.
GigE Vision for 3-D Medical Research
PITTSBURGH, May 25, 2010 — ThreeRivers 3D, a 3-D imaging device maker, has been commissioned by a major medical research center to develop a 3-D hand scanner. The purpose of this custom device is to scan patients’ hands to monitor the progression of rheumatoid arthritis...
CMOS Technology Brings New Opportunities for Consumer Imaging
Dec 1, 2005 — Although CCD sensors had been the technology of choice for imaging devices for years, CMOS-based sensors have emerged as a viable alternative. CMOS sensors offer a number of intrinsic advantages relative to CCDs, including low power consumption and...
CCDs Aid Exploration
Apr 1, 2004 — Whether imaging the galaxy or intracellular activity, cameras based on CCD sensors continue to capture ever more complex images of the known universe. Still images that are generated with full-frame CCDs can present stunning vistas, but images can...
CMOS Sensors Expand Their Universe
Nov 1, 2003 — What a difference a year -- or two -- makes with imaging technology. First-generation cell-phone cameras, for example, primarily used CCD sensors, but the cost benefits of CMOS technology, as well as increasing consumer demand for smaller handheld...
Direct Image Sensor Tackles Color Concerns
Nov 1, 2003 — When an application demands high-quality color imaging, CCD sensors once were the only alternative, but this is no longer the case for certain applications. Foveon Inc. in Santa Clara, Calif., believes that the key to boosting color imaging...
