Kodak Tackles Poor Camera-Phone Quality

Camera phones may be a welcome convenience when compared to lugging around a full-size digital camera just to take snap shots, but in terms of image quality, most still make low-light shots look like they were taken at the bottom of the sea with remote-controlled submarines. Kodak has aimed to change that with the release of the KAC-05020 5-megapixel image sensor, which it claims will substantially improve low-light quality with fundamental changes to the way a sensor works.

New Kodak Sensors Improve Low-Light Photos

Eastman Kodak has announced a new development in digital image sensor technology which improves sensitivity and may reduce or even eliminate the need for flashes.

Kodak’s new sensor technology adds “clear” panchromatic pixels to the traditional red, green, and blue color capture elements in a traditional image sensor array. Since the clear pixels are sensitive to light at all wavelengths, they collect more of the light which makes it through to the sensor, enabling a camera to take clear images in low-light conditions without increasing exposure time. Overall, the technology offers a 2× to 4× increase in sensitivity.
