A Proposed Simple Teleradiology System Using a Digital Camera

Background & Aims: Teleradiology as an efficient way for avoiding unnecessary transfer of patients to special medical centers requires the images with digital format. However, in some developing countries, including Iran, imaging is being done using non digital devices. In such cases, changing analog images into digital ones can solve the problem. The method which is nowadays used for digita...

Digital Mapping Camera System

Digital camera system on a chip

of activity in the area of CMOS image sensors has taken place. Up until recently, the dominant, and nearly the only, solid-state image sensor technology was the charge-coupled device (CCD). However, most microprocessors, logic circuits, ASICs, and memory circuits are based on CMOS technology. Now CMOS can be used for image sensors in a rapidly expanding sphere of applications. Several important...

Digital Camera System Simulator and Applications

Digital cameras are rapidly replacing traditional analog and film cameras. Despite their remarkable success in the market, most digital cameras today still lag film cameras in image quality and major efforts are being made to improve their performance. Since digital cameras are complex systems combining optics, device physics, circuits, image processing, and imaging science, it is difficult to ...

The IGN digital camera system in progress

The latest progress of IGN's project on digital cameras, that has begun in 1991, are described. The features of the present prototypes are presented. The results of the first attempt to use digital images in IGN production lines are given, either in color with an orthophoto on the city of Rennes, and in panchromatic with a survey over the city of Saumur for the production of IGN's BDTOPO®. The ...
