  3. The first subtractive sensor was made by Toshiba with dual analog memories in each pixel. It has been published in ISSCC. We have worked on subtractive sensor with a single pixel memory for face recognition, published in ESSCIRC 2002 !

    It's nice to see this concept coming back.

    1. with dual memories, you can sample 2 consecutive images inside with almost zero delay. For example, you can sample the first image with LED on and the second image with LED off, then you can get the difference between them. Since the ambient light is static in most of cases, then it can be removed. It's like you get LED lit image in a dark room ...
