Patent Images
1. A high definition digital camera system comprising:
- an optical assembly for gathering light from a desired scene; and
an imaging system comprising a imager including an array of pixels aligned with the optical assembly, and a minimum resolution and frame rate to produce a serial data rate of at least 48 megabytes per second, wherein the array produces a minimum of 10-bits per pixel of color data; and
a frame grabber for capturing raw image data output from the imager on a selective continuous or intermittent basis;
wherein light gathered by the optical assembly is received by the imager for generating and outputting raw image data at film or video rates.
