2. Single-pixel Camera Takes High-res Images: Engineers Use New Mathematics And Micro Mirrors In ...
   10-02-2006 · ScienceDaily
   Using new mathematics and a silicon chip covered with hundreds of thousands of bacterium-sized mirrors, Rice University engineers have designed a time-multiplexed camera that takes high-resolution images with a single photodiode. Today's battery-hungry megapixel cameras contain millions of photodiodes, but Rice's camera creates an image by capturing one pixel of light several thousands of times in succession. The research will be presented October 11 at Frontiers in Optics 2006 in Rochester, New York.
