About: Photography site reports that Planet82 presents a 2Mp 'Single Carrier Modulation Photo Detector' SMPD color sensor. Last year it demonstrated VGA black and white sensor. Many in the industry were sceptical about its ability to produce high-quality color images. Now we'll see what Planet82 sensor can deliver in color.
The site also mentions that the first applications for this are likely to be in CCTV, but camera phones and digital cameras are likely to follow. However, it may take some years to scale up the SMPD sensor to a suitable size for high-resolution imaging, the site states. Probably they mean small pixel size, as 2MP sensor is already quite useful in camera phones in terms of pure resolution.
