Charge Coupled Device (CCD) digital cameras are everywhere these days, but it is hard to design a very high performing camera that works no matter where or when the user wants to use it. Optimizing a ...

Toshiba’s TCD2728DG CCD linear image sensor uses lens reduction to cut random noise, enhancing image quality in semiconductor inspection equipment and A3 multifunction printers. As a lens-reduction ...

The expanding use and importance of image sensors in safety-critical applications such as automotive and medical devices has transformed noise from an annoyance into a life-threatening problem that ...

• Product specifications are not always presented in a way that allows direct comparison. • A resolution spec apart from a bandwidth spec is not entirely useful. There’s one problem with sensors: The ...

It’s true that software and machine learning are more important than hardware when it comes to delivering the best smartphone cameras. But it’s also true that hardware plays a part, and that over the ...

What is camera noise? Why do you hear people talking about it and how is it different from film grain? These are all questions that you may be asking yourself if you have decided to start looking more ...

"Stochastic resonance is a phenomenon where a weak signal which is below the detection threshold of a sensor can be detected in the presence of a finite and appropriate amount of noise," according to ...

This paper describes the design and characterisation of a long-range capacitive displacement sensor, NanoSensor® model NXE2. Special emphasis is placed on the design features and metrological ...

Although the ability tends to wane as we get older, the human auditory system is pretty good at filtering out background noise and making a single voice able to be understood above the general hubbub ...

NoiseAware is launching the third generation of its “smoke detector for noise” along with a new outdoor sensor. Designed for short-term rental homeowners, the NoiseAware device lets them monitor noise ...
