Various imaging devices such as digital camera or camera modules use a technology, where, the optical image is obtained by a lens in a form of an electrical signal, this function is performed by a sensor known as imaging sensor. Over the time this technology has overtaken the traditional cameras, as the imaging sensors promise to deliver better quality image. Technically digital cameras make use of the light hollows and a sequence of photosites to capture the image. The light used for creating an image in a camera, depends upon the type of image sensor, also the quality if the image depends upon the same. Larger the sensors better is the picture quality and vice versa. Mostly large sensors are used in digital or professional cameras and small sensors are used by the mobiles or tablet integrated camera. Moreover, Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) have built-in interchangeable lens comprising of large sensors.
