==Imaging array with directional response - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18302822 titled 'Imaging array with directional response

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes an image sensing device with a detector assembly that includes optical sensing elements and optical apertures aligned with them, along with objective optics to focus light onto the detector assembly.

* Optical sensing elements have a predefined pitch and an active area width less than 90% of the pitch.
* Optical apertures are positioned at a distance from the optical sensing elements at least twice the width of the active area.
* Objective optics are used to focus light from a scene onto the detector assembly.

== Potential Applications ==
This technology could be applied in:
* Digital cameras
* Surveillance systems
* Medical imaging devices

== Problems Solved ==
This technology helps in:
* Improving image quality
* Enhancing resolution
* Increasing sensitivity to light

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include:
* Higher quality images
* Improved performance in low light conditions
* Enhanced overall image resolution

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
Optimizing Image Sensing Devices for Enhanced Performance


==Original Abstract Submitted==

An image sensing device includes a detector assembly, which includes a matrix of optical sensing elements having a predefined pitch. Each optical sensing element includes an active area having a width that is less than 90% of the pitch. An array of optical apertures are respectively aligned with the optical sensing elements such that each optical aperture is positioned at a distance from a respective optical sensing element that is no less than twice the width of the active area. Objective optics are configured to focus light from a scene onto the detector assembly.
