Consumers are demanding more from their mobile phone cameras, which has led to explosive growth in the integration of high-pixel-count, high-quality cameras into mobile phones. To date, image sensors ...

Apple has filed a patent for a new type of image sensor that could give future iPhones and other Apple devices the ability to capture photos and videos with dynamic range levels approaching that of ...

The latest security cameras take full advantage of recent advances in digital imaging technology and increasingly incorporate intelligent algorithms based on motion and object detection to automate ...

OmniVision has launched its new OV50X image sensor, which takes smartphone photography to a whole new level with an extraordinarily high dynamic range – almost 110dB. That’s the highest ever seen in ...

Said to have the mobile phone industry’s highest dynamic range, for movie-grade video capture, the OV50X is a 50-megapixel (MP) sensor with a 1.6-micron (µm) pixel in a 1-inch optical format. The ...

Today, smartphones are good enough to shoot professional stock photography. But the images produced by the first phone-mounted cameras were once laughingstock photography. Moore's Law, multiple lenses ...

The high dynamic range technique captures more detail and a wider range of light, but the process that requires merging multiple images together limits the method to stationary subjects. Panasonic, ...

Photothermal interferometry is an ultra-sensitive spectroscopic means for trace chemical detection in gas- and liquid-phase materials. Previous photothermal interferometry systems used free-space ...
