Major Consumer Image Sensor Innovations Presented at IEDM

Major image sensor innovations that are reported in past editions of IEDM are reviewed in the paper. CMOS image sensor technology has been revolutionized over the last couple of decades. Several the improvements have been initially published at past IEDMs. In this way the conference makes a major and valuable contribution by reporting these innovations, while also stimulating imaging engineers to continue with high-level R&D work to further increase the performance level of solid-state image sensors.
