EU Suspends CMOS Sensor Customs Duty

online engineering degree/engineering degree online/online engineering courses/engineering technology online/engineering courses online/engineering technician degree online/online engineering technology/electronic engineering online
IMV Europe, Vision Systems Design: Starting from Jan 1, 2013, Europe suspends the customs duty on CMOS sensors, responding to the request made by Framos, a Germany-based distributor of CMOS sensors.

CCDs have already enjoyed tax-free import rules since 2010. However, CMOS sensors were related to a tariff group of "parts for television cameras" and were levied a 5% customs duty.

Lou Hermans, COO of Belgium-based CMOSIS, commented: "It will make us a little less competitive, in the sense that people importing CMOS sensors from abroad [outside Europe] will not be confronted with the import duties anymore." However, he went on to say that CMOSIS is not really competing on price but on performance and the company is targeting niche sensing markets. "I don’t expect it will affect us that much," he said.

ESPROS Announces TDI Imager Process

online engineering degree/engineering degree online/online engineering courses/engineering technology online/engineering courses online/engineering technician degree online/online engineering technology/electronic engineering online
ESPROS' Jan 2013 Chips newsletter (subscription-only) announces CMOS process with CCD-like TDI functionality:

"This apparently simple concept is very difficult to implement in CMOS technology since a true charge handling over several stages is normally not provided. This is whereour ESPROS Photonic CMOS process plays its strengths. In a pure CCD process, the core pixels could be implemented straightforward (in-fact a 2D CCD array does the job), but there is no performance analog circuitry available to gather, multiplex and amplify the incoming lines on one or few output pads at the required speed.

In close cooperation with a very ambitious customer, epc engineers created an implementation of the TDI concept in the ESPROS Photonic CMOS process. The challenging requirements were assessed using device simulation and optimum structures were selected for the test-chip, which is currently in production.

H.265 Standard Approved

online engineering degree/engineering degree online/online engineering courses/engineering technology online/engineering courses online/engineering technician degree online/online engineering technology/electronic engineering online
ITU members approved H.265 video compression standard, known informally as ‘High Efficiency Video Coding’ (HEVC), and considered to be twice more effective than the widely adopted now H.264. The approval is believed to pave the way for 4K video devices, HDR features in video and more.

The new standard includes a ‘Main’ profile that supports 8-bit 4:2:0 video, a ‘Main 10’ profile with 10-bit support, and a ‘Main Still Picture’ profile for still image coding that employs the same coding tools as a video ‘intra’ picture.

The ITU/ISO/IEC Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding (JCT-VC) will continue work on a range of extensions to HEVC, including support for 12-bit video as well as 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 chroma formats. Another important element of this work will be the progression of HEVC towards scalable video coding. The three bodies will also work within the Joint Collaborative Team on 3D-Video (JCT-3V) on the extension of HEVC towards stereoscopic and 3D video coding.

London Image Sensor Conference Announces Agenda, Interviews Pelican Imaging CTO

online engineering degree/engineering degree online/online engineering courses/engineering technology online/engineering courses online/engineering technician degree online/online engineering technology/electronic engineering online
Business Wire: Image Sensors conference (IS2013) have released its full agenda for 2013. Jim DeFilippis, the former EVP Digital Television Technologies and Standards at Fox TV, and one of the keynote speakers for IS2013 is to discuss the duality of image sensor and display technology development in 3D broadcast technology. His presentation is set to include his experiences from the London 2012 Olympics 3D broadcast.

The other keynote speakers at IS2013 include; Dr Howard E Rhodes, CTO, OMNIVISION, USA. Dr Junichi Nakamura, Director, Japan Design Centre, APTINA Japan, Japan. Alan Roberts, Colour Science Consultant (former BBC R&D), UK. Prof Franco Zappa, POLIMI, Italy

The pre-conference workshops will be led by Prof Edoardo Charbon, TU Delft, The Netherlands and Nicolas Touchard DxO Labs, France and will focus around Single-Photon Imaging - Technology Overview and Focus on Medical Applications and testing and Optimization of Image Sensor Performance.

The conference site also published the interview with Kartik Venkataraman, Pelican Imaging Founder and CTO.

Q. What are the novel applications for [the multi-aperture] image capture in a camera phone application?

A. "Clearly the biggest advantage of this approach is that you are getting not just an image of the scene but also its depth. The camera array needs to be seen as a both an imaging device and a 3D acquisition device. The technology is passive, low light capable, small enough to fit into the mobile device one carries around, and produces high quality high resolution images. From that point of view, it allows one to imagine all sorts of capabilities given the availability of a high resolution depth map along with the high resolution image. Besides synthetic refocus (in post capture still and live video) some of the applications would be distance measurement, scene segmentation, object level manipulation and filtering as well as 3D modeling and just about anything that can be further enhanced with the availability of a depth map."
