[0042] phase integration
[0043] According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a wide dynamic range sensor element or array that accurately captures high and low brightness images using phase domain integration techniques. The sensor element of the present invention is not limited by the dynamic range performance exhibited by prior art solid state pixel structures, and thus can capture the entire range of electromagnetic radiation to provide a high quality output image.
[0044] Figure 7A A schematic diagram of the response of a sensor element was built for use of the technique of the present invention. The extended dynamic range of the sensor element is sufficient to enable it to respond to illuminating light with a pixel response over the entire range of electromagnetic radiation intensities. Thus, the sensor elements are able to capture sufficient charge in the darkest parts while avoiding saturation effects in bright parts of the captured image....
