Abstract :
A profile imager for high-speed automatic target tracking has the capability of executing both target-tracking control from a 512×512 image array of 20 μm×20 μm pixels and the acquisition of a sub-array, simultaneously. 128×128 partial images of an automobile license plate can be captured at 1620f/s. A 0.6 μm 3M2P CMOS process is used to implement the 13.0mm×14.3mm imager.
