Microsoft Complains about Image Sensor Power

While this topic has been covered in one of the recent posts, this time it appears again in MIT Technology Review:

"Victor Bahl, research manager of the mobility networking group at Microsoft Research... said at the MIT Technology Review Mobile Summit in San Francisco on Tuesday that while much work has been done to reduce the size and improve the resolution of image sensors, there hasn’t been much attention paid to their power circuitry." Microsoft proposes to reduce the sensor power by powering down the sensor between the active capture slots, described in their paper at Mobisys conference to be held later this month in Taiwan.
