Summary:A 189×182 active pixel sensor for temporal difference
computation is presented. The temporal difference imager, fabricated in
an AM1 0.5 μm process, contains in-pixel storage elements for
previous and current frames. A pipelined architecture for difference
readout is implemented, allowing >200 fps, 42 dB signal-to-noise
ratio images and 8-bit precision of the difference image. The chip
consumes 30 mW at 50 fps from a 5 V power supply
