A Bayer array, or Bayer filter, is what lets a digital camera take color photos. It’s an array of tiny color filters that sit on top of a camera’s CCD. The filter makes it so that each … ...

At the heart of today’s digital imaging devices are charge-coupled devices (CCD). A type of semiconductor that’s sensitive to light, a CCD consists of a 2-D array of individual elements, each ...

Placing a CCD array at the prime focus of a telescope or observatory is a surefire way to get an... [+] outstanding image; a technique that's been in use for well over 100 years.

A CCD sensor, on the other hand, is global, meaning the entire array captures light at once, then takes a period of time to ...

Only two months ago, I wrote a blog entry on Kodak’s 50-Mpixel CCD still-camera sensor and the Hasselblad H3DII-50 large-format camera that first carried this sensor. Well, Kodak has just unleashed ...

Lansis CCD cameras extend Teledyne’s spectroscopy portfolio into system integrator and OEM markets, bringing with them increased sensitivity and reliability. Based on the latest in CCD array detector ...

In the near future, laser-based detection systems will allow military aircraft to identify enemy ground vehicles accurately in battle zones and permit spacecraft and robotic vehicles to navigate ...
