+ _ Photon Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) Howstuffworks.com Photons strike the CCD. The CCD produces a charge equivalent to the number of photons. A chip measures the charge and stores the information as a number
CCDs can only measure intensity • Filters are needed to measure the intensity of a single color. • Color pictures require 3 matrices • red • green • blue • Therefore 3 CCDs
A single CCD is preferred Pixels with different color filters are alternated. The intensity of each color at each pixel is determined by either the pixel itself or the average of the neighboring pixels Howstuffworks.com
FLIR Systems Infrared Sensing: Everything above absolute zero emits infrared electromagnetic waves. The intensity of these waves is proportional to the temperature of the object.
