Image Sensors on The Vision Conference

The Vision Conference to be held on June 10-12 in Boston has a session on image sensors:

SESSION 8
Advances in Image Sensor Technology

Better understand image sensors and how recent developments in back illuminated technologies allow higher volume at lower cost while maintaining the benefits of higher quantum efficiency, broad spectrum response, and 100% fill factor. Learn how improvements in CMOS image sensors will help you gain the full benefit of higher on-chip functionality and higher frame rates.

Topics and Instructors in Session 8 include:
Back Illuminated Imagers Enhance Vision Performance

Instructor: Pradyumna Swain, Director of Engineering, Sarnoff Corporation
Recent developments in back illuminated technologies allow image sensors with higher volume at lower cost while maintaining the benefits of higher quantum efficiency, broad spectrum response, and 100% fill factor. You'll learn about back thinning processes and their advantages and pitfalls. The benefits of back thinning in machine vision, security, medical and scientific applications will be discussed, including cost effectiveness.

Improvements in CMOS Image Sensors with Global Shutter
Instructor: Guy Meynants, CEO, CMOSIS
Learn about improvements in CMOS image sensor technology that were driven by the cell phone camera market and have put it on par with CCDs for consumer applications. Find out how to implement these advances for machine vision applications to gain the full benefit of higher on-chip functionality and higher frame rates.

I was told that CMOSIS is going to present its new global shutter pixel in this session.
