N2 - A novel image sensor on which video signals can be compressed is proposed. Since the video signal is compressed on an imager plane by using fast analog processing, the amount of image data read out from the imager can be significantly reduced with very small latency. The proposed system can be potentially applied to high pixel rate cameras such as those for high speed imaging and high resolution imaging. Conditional replenishment is employed for the video compression algorithm. Analog circuits are designed both for processing in each pixel and for controlling the entire data rate. The behavior of the circuit is investigated on the basis of both an analog circuit simulator and a scale-up-circuit. A VLSI chip is designed and is under fabrication.
