When snapping digital photos with our cameras and phones, it’s easy to forget what’s actually happening inside to get the light from your subject into the camera, and then up on its way to Instagram.

Choosing the right charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensor is an important decision. While some features of a given sensor may make it optimal for use in one application, this same sensor may be less ...

We'll take a look at the charge-coupled device sensor from a Fujifilm Finepix E550 6.3-Mpixel camera. For a point-and-shoot camera, the Finepix E550 delivers impressive resolution as well as ISO 800 ...

Binning is a crucial feature of scientific cameras, especially in applications with low light such as chemiluminescence western blotting. Binning increases the sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio ...

Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has launched "TCD2400DG," a lens-reduction type [1] CCD [2] linear image sensor developed expressly for line scan cameras [3] used in ...

HORIBA Scientific, global leader in Raman and Fluorescence spectroscopy systems, launched their new Syncerity back-illuminated, deep-cooled CCD camera with an NIR-enhanced 2048x70 sensor. This CCD ...

single computer chip. It’s a camera. It’s a chip. It’s a camera-on-a-chip. arriving at the CCD sensor is converted into a pixel charge array. The charge array is serially shifted out of the sensor and ...

Digital imaging innovators Willard S. Boyle and George E. Smith were awarded a Nobel Prize in Physics today for their groundbreaking work on the first digital image sensor, the CCD. The CCD, or charge ...

It is easy to compare basic camera specifications like resolution, frame rate and interface. Comparing imaging performance of cameras like temporal dark noise, quantum efficiency and saturation ...

With everyone demanding the best camera phone, image quality has become the latest smartphone arms race. And the camera sensor is where manufacturers are duking it out. While large megapixel counts ...
