A micrograph of the corner of the photosensor array of a webcam digital camera Image sensor (upper left) on the motherboard of a Nikon Coolpix L2 6 MP. The two main types of digital image sensors are the charge-coupled device (CCD) and the active-pixel sensor (CMOS sensor), fabricated in complementary MOS (CMOS) or N-type MOS (NMOS or Live MOS) technologies.
Fluxgate sensors or saturable inductor current sensors work on the same measurement principle as Hall-effect-based current sensors: the magnetic field created by the primary current to be measured is detected by a specific sensing element. The design of the saturable inductor current sensor is similar to that of a closed-loop Hall-effect ...
A traditional, front-illuminated digital camera is constructed in a fashion similar to the human eye, with a lens at the front and photodetectors at the back. This traditional orientation of the sensor places the active matrix of the digital camera image sensor—a matrix of individual picture elements—on its front surface and simplifies manufacturing.
Camera PCB with a 1/3" Sony CCD Camera modules may include a lens (shown at top), an image sensor (shown at bottom), and supporting circuitry. NC393 multisensor camera kit, for developers. A camera module is an image sensor integrated with a lens, control electronics, [1] and an interface like CSI, Ethernet or plain raw low-voltage differential ...
Remote photoelectric sensors used for remote sensing contain only the optical components of a sensor. The circuitry for power input, amplification, and output switching is located elsewhere, typically in a control panel. This allows the sensor, itself, to be very small. Also, the controls for the sensor are more accessible, since they may be ...
It originally referred specifically to an NMOS sensor [2] but was later used to refer to CMOS, BSI CMOS, and stacked BSI CMOS sensors [3] so appears to generally reference active pixel sensors. Due to low energy consumption, it became possible to add the live preview function to all the Four Thirds System cameras since 2006 (except the Olympus ...
The camera control unit (CCU) is typically part of a live television broadcast chain. It is responsible for powering the professional video camera , handling signals sent over the camera cable to and from the camera, and can be used to control various camera parameters remotely.
In three-sensor camera systems that use separate sensors to resolve the red, green, and blue components of the image in conjunction with beam splitter prisms, the three CMOS sensors can be identical, whereas most splitter prisms require that one of the CCD sensors has to be a mirror image of the other two to read out the image in a compatible ...
