Abstract: A computerized multicolor camera is disclosed that provides digital signal representations of several monocolor images of an object. The camera has an image sensor with an imaging region that develops a charge pattern in response to incident light reflected from the object through a selectable color filter to the imaging region. This analog charge pattern for each selectable color is digitized, the computer within the camera corrects the digitized values for nonlinearities of the image sensor, and stores the corrected digital values in its internal memory. The computer within the camera can then transfer the digital representations of the image to an external computer via a SCSI interface. In addition, the camera has an analog output mode that generates a monocolor real time video signal.
