Dynamic and active pixel vision sensors (DAVISs) are a new type of sensor that combine a frame-based intensity readout with an event-based temporal contrast readout. This paper demonstrates that these sensors inherently perform high-speed, video compressio ...
SPADnet is a sensor platform for the detection and processing of gamma photons generated in a PET system. SPADnet uses the novel technique of deferred coincidence detection, whereas timestamps associated with gamma events and their energy are routed at hig ...
Event-based dynamic vision sensors (DVSs) asynchronously report log intensity changes. Their high dynamic range, sub-ms latency and sparse output make them useful in applications such as robotics and real-time tracking. However they discard absolute intens ...
In this paper, we study the applicability of active learning (AL) in operative scenarios. More particularly, we consider the well-known contradiction between the AL heuristics, which rank the pixels according to their uncertainty, and the user's confidence ...
A novel CMOS image sensor is proposed to overcome the analog design limitations in Active Pixel Sensors - APS and large area overcome in Digital Pixel Sensors - DPS for use in bio-medical applications. The design includes a pixel level event generation mec ...
This paper explores a new way to reduce the readout noise for CMOS image sensors by using a typical 4T pixel embedding a PMOS source follower with reduced oxide thickness and gate dimensions. This approach is confirmed by a test chip designed in a 180 nm C ...
Event-based vision sensors, such as the Dynamic Vision Sensor (DVS), do not output a sequence of video frames like standard cameras, but a stream of asynchronous events. An event is triggered when a pixel detects a change of brightness in the scene. An eve ...
Laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) has already been used to fabricate various types of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), and the process itself has been optimised and refined considerably since OLED pixels were first demonstrated. In particular, a ...
A method of acquiring an image of a scene illuminated by a first beam, by means of a sensor including at least two pixels, including the steps of: a) for each pixel, reading a first output value of the pixel representative of the intensity of the radiation ...
Email Print Request Permissions For a CIS readout chain based on 4T pixel, column amplification and CDS, we confirm that thermal noise can be reduced to be neglected compared to 1/f noise using parameters independent of the pixel design, namely column leve ...
