摘要： A visual sensor that operates based on received image information with an external applied mechanical vibration. The vibration is used to move the image information relative to the image sensor. The image sensor senses the image information and applies that information to an image processing circuit that produces pulses based on transitions in the image information. Those pulses can be used to characterize the image.

摘要： The image sensing device incorporates a charge multiplication function in its serial register. The design layout is compact in size and the charge multiplication register consists of multi-channel sections that are evenly positioned around the periphery of the image sensing area. The individual charge multiplying register sections are coupled together by only 90-degree multi-channel turns located at the image area array corners. The device allows for the optical image sensing area center to be located near the chip center and consequently near the mechanical package center with the minimum silicon chip area sacrifice.

摘要： An extended dynamic range pixel cell providing blooming protection is disclosed herein. By applying a timed varying signal to a shunt transistor in order to shunt excess charge generated by a photosensor in response to high intensity illumination, blooming protection can be provided. In particular configurations, blooming protection is provided not only during an integration period but also during a readout period when the pixel cell is generally most susceptible to blooming problems. The time varying voltage is also used to extend the dynamic range of the pixel cell thereby increasing the pixel cells usefulness in high contrast conditions, such as bright sunlight casting deep shadows, nighttime automotive applications, and the like.

摘要： An integrated image sensor having a conditioned top silicon oxide layer and/or one or more additional insulating layers/structures to reduce optical and/or electrical noise. The image sensor has an array of one or more pixels, each pixel having a photoelement formed on a substrate and configured to generate an electrical signal in response to incident light, and associated circuitry formed on the substrate and configured to process the electrical signal generated in the photoelement. In one embodiment, a portion of a top insulating layer in the integrated image sensor corresponding to each photoelement has a thickness different from the thickness of a portion of the top insulating layer corresponding to its associated circuitry to inhibit the flow of light between the associated circuitry and the photoelement and/or between the pixel and an adjacent pixel in the array. In another embodiment, the image sensor has one or more insulating structures formed on the substrate and configured to inhibit the flow of electricity between a photoelement and its associated circuitry and/or the pixel and an adjacent pixel in the array. The present invention can reduce optical and/or electrical noise and crosstalk to improve image quality and diminish artifacts in the image sensor's output.

摘要： An image-quality adjustment system for a liquid-crystal projector detects the brightness and color of ambient light, or detects the brightness and color of the surface onto which the liquid-crystal projector projects an image. The image signal is automatically adjusted according to the detected brightness and color. For example, the brightness, contrast, and color balance of the image signal may be adjusted. The intensity of the lamp in the liquid-crystal projector may also be adjusted. A clear and natural image can thus be projected without the need for manual adjustments.

摘要： Improved pixel circuits are disclosed for high fill-factor large area imager systems using continuous (e.g., amorphous silicon) sensor layers. A first approach prevents crosstalk by ensuring that each pixel is not able to go into saturation. A second approach employs a cascode transistor to maintain the bias of the sensor contact at a constant potential regardless of illumination condition. These two approaches may be combined. A resistive film connecting the pixel contacts may be used in conjunction with the second approach to prevent aliasing of signal and noise.
