CMOS Image Sensor

A CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor is a technology used in digital cameras and smartphones to capture images. It converts light into electrical signals, which are then processed to create a digital image. CMOS sensors are favored for their low power consumption, fast processing speeds, and ability to integrate many functions on a single chip. This makes them versatile and efficient, improving image quality while reducing the size and cost of cameras, benefiting both consumers and manufacturers alike. They are widely used in various applications, from photography to medical imaging.
