Inventor of CMOS Sensor Develops Quanta Image Sensor - Breakthrough for
photography
"University professor and inventor of CMOS image sensor worked for more than
3 years along with his student Jiaju Ma, for the development of pixels for
Quanta Image Sensor (QIS).
The pixels are very smaller than the current generation of CMOS sensors.
Quanta Image Sensor (QIS) pixels are designed to capture only single photon.
By increasing the number of pixels on same sensor size the camera / module
will capture more light and details compared to the current generation of
sensors." http://thenewcamera.com/inventor-of-cmos-sensor-develops-quanta
