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 ...

Camera sources today are overwhelmingly based on either Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) or CMOS technology. Both of these technologies convert light into electrical signals, but they differ in how this ...

'Revolutionary' is used too often to describe advances in science. When applied to the invention of the charge-coupled device (CCD) array by Willard Boyle and George Smith, however, it is not far off.

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 sub-pixel in ...
