Pseudo-BJT based retinal focal-plane sensing system

摘要

A Pseudo Bipolar Junction Transistor(Pseudo-BJT) based retinal focal-plane sensing system is an instant image sensing and front-end processing system with the advantages of high dynamic range and instant image processing. In addition, the system proposes a Pseudo-BJT based retinal focal-plane sensor with adaptive current Schmitt trigger and smoothing network for applying a new Pseudo-BJT circuit structure to mimic parts of functions of the cells in the outer plexiform layer of the real retina. It is suitable to resolve the existing technical drawbacks performing major functions in optical image detecting circuits, such as image recognition, image tracing, robot vision, bar-code/character readers, etc.
