Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method for continuous production of porous silicon layers (single or multiple layers) on workpieces made of silicon or workpieces with a silicon coating. The method according to the invention is thereby based on a one-sided etching method, the workpiece being guided horizontally, by means of a transport device, with the front side of the workpiece to be etched, past at least one etching chamber, comprising an electrolyte and a cathode. This method can be used in particular for the production of PV cells.

Abstract: A system for generating an output image is provided. A first camera of a camera pair is configured to record a first portion of a scene to obtain a first recorded image. A second camera of the camera pair is configured to record a second portion of the scene to obtain a second recorded image. Moreover, a central camera is configured to record a further portion of the scene, to obtain a central image. A processor is configured to generate the output image. The first brightness range of the first camera of each camera pair is different from the central-camera brightness range and is different from the first brightness range of the first camera of any other camera pair of the one or more camera pairs.
