There are two primary types of sensors that are used to capture video data — CCD sensors and CMOS sensors. A significant difference between these two technologies is how the video data is read out. For CCD sensors the charge is shifted out whereas for CMOS sensors the charge or voltage flows through column and row decoders, very much like a digital memory architecture.
CMOS sensors are becoming prevalent for a variety of reasons – not least because of their proliferation within consumer devices. This not only drives up the quality but ...
