Most digital cameras use a single image sensor to capture colour images. As a result, only one colour at each pixel location is acquired. Demosaicking is a technique to estimate all the other missing colour pixel information in order to produce a full colour image, while inverse demosaicking refers to the recovery of the single image sensor values from the full colour image. Early digital cameras...
This paper discusses use of a single image sensor with a four-channel color filter array (CFA) and flexible readout capabilities for a compact digital camera. It considers camera system technology and design tradeoffs, followed by a discussion of an example four-channel sensor. Advantages of the sensor include better sensitivity than a similar sensor with a three-channel CFA and more flexible exposure...
This paper presents a multi-sensor image acquisition platform which combines with hardware and software and can adjusts the dynamic range of sensor according to changes in light source. The hardware mainly consiste of image sensor MT9V032 and FPGA, and use the DMA in PCIE bus to obtain high-speed data transmission. Based on the High Dynamic Range characteristic of MT9V032, we propose a algorithm for...
This paper describes a distance measurement system based on image sensors for automatic berthing of ships. An automatic berthing system is a solution to relieve psychological and physical strains on the operator in berthing maneuvering that is the most difficult and delicate phase. Usually, a sensor system for the automatic berthing system should accommodate ship movements such as rolling, pitching,...
Wireless vision sensor network is an emerging field which combines image sensor, on board computation and communication links. Compared to the traditional wireless sensor networks which operate on one dimensional data, wireless vision sensor networks operate on two dimensional data which requires both higher processing power and communication bandwidth. The research focus within the field of wireless...
A flat type image sensor consisting of a field emitter array (FEA) and a high-gain avalanche rushing amorphous photoconductor (HARP) target is developed as the low light imaging compact camera. In this paper, the structure and fundamental characteristics of a prototype 2/3-inch HEED-HARP image sensor are described.
Due to the high cost and physical limitations of the high precision image sensors, it is not easy to directly obtain the desired high resolution (HR) images from sensors in many cases. A new iterative super-resolution (SR) algorithm based on projection onto convex sets (POCS) model is proposed. In this method, a new algorithm is adopted to estimate subpixel shift of the low-resolution (LR) images...
To obtain the full color image, at least three channels are required at each color location, however the image sensor obtains only the intensity of the brightness and cannot separate color information, three image sensors are required per pixel to capture the full color image. Since the image sensor is expensive, most of digital still cameras (DSCs) adopt single image sensor array with color filter...
