  • Optical sensing apparatus and method for determining highest intensity of light in an array
    Patent number: 7265331
    Abstract: A plurality of optical sensing elements in an array where each element has a unique element address identifying the element location. Each element senses light and produces an element address signal in proportion to the intensity of the light sensed by the element. The element address signal corresponding to the highest intensity sensed by the array is asserted as an array output signal.
