Side-by-Side Comparisons of Analog CCD Cameras vs. Pixim-powered Cameras

blogadmin - Thursday, 2 February 2012 11:24

More than 250 security camera models have incorporated Pixim’s Digital Pixel System® technology to ensure that they will always capture clear, accurate images in all lighting conditions. Pixim’s Digital Pixel System ® technology revolutionizes the way video cameras capture and process images. Unlike traditional cameras, where each pixel cannot adjust to highlights and lowlights in the same scene, Pixim’s patented Digital Pixel System technology empowers hundreds of thousands of pixels to act like constantly self-adjusting individual cameras. This all-digital system enables Pixim-powered cameras to efficiently capture the whole picture, regardless of lighting condition or application thus securing the highest resolution, natural color and clarity, while automatically eliminating image-compromising visual noise (eg, glare, reflections). The result is more than superb image quality; it is accurate, actionable information that gives users the strength of certainty.

Q&A: COROT-7b????????????

blogadmin - Thursday, 2 February 2012 11:06

Question by Mac A: COROT-7b????????????
I thought the planet discovered with a solid” surface was one orbiting Gliese 581. I know it supposedly has water but I thought that was “solid” water. Even if it is liquid water then i consider it likely that it probably has a solid core under the water. So i dont understand the supposed “new” announcement of COROT-7b being the first solid planet.

Best answer:

Answer by Scott
Well, hopefully the James Webb in 2014 will be able to tell us a great deal more.
