A nanowire diode with a built-in electron trap senses, denoises, and classifies images without separate processing hardware, mimicking the retina and opening a path to smarter edge computing.

Both image photodetector arrays and retinas are pixelated sensors that dynamically extract various features from the visual scene—e.g., color, brightness, and contrast—before transmitting electrical ...

Image sensors are built into every smartphone and every digital camera. They distinguish colors in a similar way to the human eye. In our retinas, individual cone cells recognize red, green and blue ...

Canon's new SPAD sensors work by amplifying a single photon that enters the sensor's pixels into large amounts of electrical energy pulses. This allows the camera to see objects in areas with small ...

Modern electronic devices often have at least a few analog rails in their power profile. This is especially applicable in consumer electronics, automotive, medicine, and smart home devices. Building ...

A new generation of CMOS image sensors can exploit all the image data to perceive a scene, understand the situation, and intervene by embedding artificial intelligence (AI) in the sensor. CEA-Leti ...
