Patent number: 8853611Abstract: A high dynamic range sensitive sensor element or array is provided which uses periodic sampling phase domain integration techniques to accurately capture high and low intensity images. The sensor element of the present invention is not limited by dynamic range characteristics exhibited by prior art solid-state pixel structures and is thus capable of capturing a full spectrum of electromagnetic radiation to provide a high quality output image.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2013Date of Patent: October 7, 2014Assignee: RJS Technology, Inc.Inventor: Sorin Davidovici

Patent number: 8736914Abstract: An image scanning apparatus includes a housing. A first image sensor (linear scan imager) is attached at a first position along the housing. The first image sensor is configured and adapted to scan an image. A second image sensor (area scan imager) is attached at a second position along the housing. The second image sensor is configured and adapted to scan an image to detect movement of the apparatus in the X and Y axis. Movement in the Y axis of the apparatus as detected by the second image sensor is utilized to trigger the first image sensor. Movement in the X axis of the apparatus as detected by the second image sensor is utilized to correct image defects (e.g. skew) of the image captured by the first image sensor thereby allowing the second image sensor to capture a 2D inspection area.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2012Date of Patent: May 27, 2014Assignee: RJS Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Christopher Ian French

Patent number: 7605355Abstract: A high dynamic range sensitive sensor array is described which uses a combination of pixel structures, some of which incorporating phase domain integration techniques to accurately capture high and low intensity images. The sensor elements included as many of the pixel structures in the sensor array are not limited by dynamic range characteristics exhibited by prior art solid-state pixel structures and is thus capable of capturing a full spectrum of electromagnetic radiation to provide a high quality output image.Type: GrantFiled: October 10, 2007Date of Patent: October 20, 2009Assignee: RJS Technology, Inc.Inventor: Sorin Davidovici

Patent number: 7532145Abstract: Integrators are electronic components used to condition received analog signals, for example prior to Analog to Digital Conversion. Wide dynamic range, high gain and fine resolution are required of integrators and Analog to Digital Converters in order to limit the effects of noise, including quantization noise. Conventional integrators preceding Analog to Digital Converters are not capable of effectively meeting these requirements. A novel phase domain integrator that can meet effectively these requirements and is superior to conventional integrators for a wide range of applications is disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2006Date of Patent: May 12, 2009Assignee: RJS Technologies Inc.Inventor: Sorin Davidovici
