"The Next Photography Revolution"
[permanent link].
An article that looks at the development of a the Foveon X3 chip that
is used to take digital pictures. This chip can detect the red, green
and blue components of light at each light detector spot. In
contrast, current chips designed to capture light can only capture the
red, greed, or blue component of light. This lets the Foveon X3 chip
capture three times as much information, possibly making it the next
breakthrough in the digital photography revolution.
