Rambus Binary Pixel technology designed to improve the quality of photos taken by mobile devices


The ability of mobile devices in the field of photography can and should be improved - specialists believe Rambus, to present their own research in this area. Technology Binary Pixel, allegedly "significantly improves the quality of photos taken by mobile devices." It includes an image sensor and processing incoming data from it, provides images with high dynamic range (HDR) image of one and increase sensitivity, enhancing its ability to shoot in low light conditions.
According to Rambus, improvement of resolution and speed cameras mobile devices behind the improvements in image quality. Meanwhile, the camera's built-in smart phones are very popular among users. Reason for the popularity is obvious - the camera is always on hand and allows you to record all the fun that happens in sight, with a minimum of effort. Unfortunately, modest optics and imaging sensors small size limit opportunities taking pictures, especially in challenging lighting conditions. To a large extent affected by the limited dynamic range, which determines the ability of the sensor to transmit both bright and dark areas of the image: a scene in the real world are often characterized by a range that exceeds the capabilities of sensors.
Rambus Binary Pixel technology produces images with high dynamic range of a single image
Development Rambus corrects the situation. As seen in the figure, improves transfer the brightest and darkest areas. In addition, the image retains more detail, which allows it to expose further processing without compromising on quality.
The advantages of the development of Rambus considers compatible with modern single chip systems for mobile devices, as well as compatibility with the process technology, used for the production of sensors CMOS.
Technology is available for licensing and integration into the image sensor.
