Shrinking pixel sizes along with improvements in image sensors; optics; and electronics have elevated DSCs to levels of performance that match; and have the potential to surpass; that of silver-halide film cameras. Image Sensors and Signal Processing for Digital Still Cameras captures the current state of DSC image acquisition and signal processing technology and takes an all-inclusive look at the field; from the history of DSCs to future possibilities.The first chapter outlines the evolution of DSCs; their basic structure; and their major application classes. The next few chapters discuss high-quality optics that meet the requirements of better image sensors; the basic functions and performance parameters of image sensors; and detailed discussions of both CCD and CMOS image sensors. The book then discusses how color theory affects the uses of DSCs; presents basic image processing and camera control algorithms and examples of advanced image processing algorithms; explores the architecture and required performance of signal processing engines; and explains how to evaluate image quality for each component described. The book closes with a look at future technologies and the challenges that must be overcome to realize them.With contributions from many active DSC experts; Image Sensors and Image Processing for Digital Still Cameras offers unparalleled real-world coverage and opens wide the door for future innovation.
