Oversampled binary image sensor
open-in-new
<p> An oversampled binary image sensor is an <a href="/facts/Image_sensor/j3GNrRln">image sensor</a> with non-linear response capabilities reminiscent of traditional <a href="/facts/Photographic_film/37aFq6ls">photographic film</a>. Each pixel in the sensor has a binary response, giving only a one-bit quantized measurement of the local light intensity. The response function of the image sensor is non-linear and similar to a logarithmic function, which makes the sensor suitable for <a href="/facts/High_dynamic_range_imaging/n4yFQ5tG">high dynamic range imaging</a>. </p>
