How Sensor Data is Captured and Stored

A sensor consists of a grid, or ‘ array ’ of individual photodiode receptors which convert the light that falls on them into an electrical voltage. The voltage varies in direct proportion to the amount of light and is converted into a number by an analog to digital converter. Image sensors don’t...
