2018 Image Sensors Europe Awards

Image Sensors Europe conference held in London, UK in mid-March publishes its 2018 Awards:

Best Academic Research Team
Winner: Robert Henderson and his team at The University of Edinburgh

Best Up-and-Coming Company
Winner: vivaMOS Ltd
"The challenges faced for the design of wafer-scale image sensors required a rethinking of the traditional methods used and developed for semiconductor ASIC design. Good pixel design know-how with expertise in analogue mixed-signal and radiation-hard designs is the foundation on which the sensors are developed for good imaging performance in harsh X-ray environments. However, developing products of such a significant size has required a new thought-process and approach. We are delighted to have been recognised with another industry award. The recognition from industry peers is testimony to the hard work and ingenuity that the vivaMOS team has put into this new business." - Dan Cathie, CEO
