Reinventing The Lens: Software-Enhanced Optics

Over the past ten years, photographic cameras have almost completely transitioned from http://blogs.rediff.com/cheapuggslinguo/silver halide film to electronic sensors. But the other key component — the lens — has remained largely unchanged... Until now. The mobile phone industry, with its huge demand for embedded cameras, is driving a broad set of new requirements for miniaturized, rugged, low-cost, low-power, high-performance lenseshttp://blog.livedoor.jp/uggslincheng. As they come to market, the superior value proposition of those lenses will threaten to displace traditional optics in cameras of all types. As a result, the business of designing and making lenses is undergoing its most fundamental upheaval since the Renaissance.

CMOS sensor developers have responded to consumer preferences for slimmer and slimmer handsets by shrinking their chips so that more pixels can be squeezed into an ever-smaller footprint. This presents a growing challenge to optics designers to supply lenses that can focus the light entering the camera down to a smaller and smaller spot. As pixel sizes shrink, women's ugg classic tall metallic soft gold boots clearance sale uggs 5812 the standard fixed-focus lenses found on must camera-phones cannot meet this challenge. As they continue to shrink — sensors that will reach the market next year will have sub-2-micron pixels — even auto-focus lenses composed of traditional glass and plastic lenses will be inadequate.

“Reinventing the Lens: Software-enhanced Optics,” a research study just published by Future Image, the leading independent center of expertise on the convergence of imaging, technology, and business, and host of the 6Sight® Future of Imaging conference, indicates that the combination of specially kid's ugg classic short black boots clearance sale uggs 5251 designed optical components and image processing techniques may offer the best solution to this daunting technical challenge. “We think it’s inescapable that ‘software-enhanced optics’ in one form or another will play a pivotal role in next generation camera-phones
