Pixim’
s patented Digital Pixel System (DPS) technology Marks
a fundamental breakthrough in imaging Technology.
Building upon technology developed at Stanford University in the 1990s,
Pixim has created An image capture and processing system that provides
High-quality pictures with enhanced dynamic Range that significantly
improves image quality in Scenes consisting of both bright and dark areas.
The core invention in DPS is the inclusion of an Analog-to-digital converter
(ADC) within each pixel of the image sensor.
The ADC translates the light Signal into a digital value at the immediate
point of Capture, thus minimizing signal degradation and cross-talk in the
array and allowing for greater noise Reduction methods.

Once the data is captured in a Digital format, a variety of digital signal
processing Techniques are used for optimal image reproduction.

If you have trouble operating your camera, refer to the following
