چکیده

CMOS image sensors are capable of very high-speed non destructive readout, enabling many novel applications. To explore such applications, we designed and prototyped an experimental high speed imaging system based on a CMOS digital pixel sensor (DPS). The experimental system comprises a PCB that has the DPS chip interfaced to a PC via three I/O cards supported by an easy to use software environment. The system is capable of image acquisition at rates of up to 1,400 frames/sec. After describing the DPS chip and experimental imaging system,we present two applications: dynamic range extension and optical flow estimation. These applications rely on the DPS’s ability to perform nondestructive readout of multiple frames at high-speed.

Video Processing Applications of High Speed Cmos Image Sensors

An important trend in the design of digital cameras is the integration of capture and processing onto a single CMOS chip. Although integrating the components of a digital camera system onto a single chip significantly reduces system size and power, it does not fully exploit the potential advantages of integration. We argue that a key advantage of integration is the ability to exploit the high s...

Image analysis using modulated light sources

With the development of high-speed CMOS imagers, it is possible to acquire and process multiple images within the imager, prior to output. We refer to an imaging architecture that acquires a collection of images and produces a single result as multiple capture single image (MCSI). In this paper we describe some applications of the MCSI architecture using a monochrome sensor and modulating light...
