Oh Canon's mighty SPAD, a sight to see
The greatest non-infrared camera to be
It can record color in complete darkness
Its capabilities are impressiveness
Highlighted with security, so vigilant and free

It’s probably just me but this ‘news’ article reads like it was written by a #spad for the #tory government. #BBC not doing themselves any favours… again. 🙄🤦‍♂️

This may be of interest to those who follow Scottish politics. A rare in-depth interview with former Special Adviser (Spad) and political strategist, Liz Lloyd, who worked closely alongside Nicola Sturgeon for years.

There are two few interviews with women who have held these influential jobs behind-the-scenes. This is an interesting listen for that aspect alone.

@Syphilia @Rosietucker

👆 Partly - did the MSM employ 'out' #MarxistLeninist Seumas Milne as Corbyn's #SpAd, thereby painting a 'commie' target onto Corbyn's back for the right-wing media to exploit? No. They just exploited it. You could see the #Vanguardist hidden agenda from the #International_Space_Station.

I canvassed many #AverageVoters and that's what scared the s**t out of them.

Great work deserves a great cake.....second paper, second round! Thanks, @garregiacomo@twitter.com, for preparing the focus ISM cake. What next?

The idea is to apply adaptive pixel reassignment to the dataset. Then, we analyze the micro-images registered by the #SPAD array to distinguish the light stemming from the focal plane. Thus, we maximize the resolution and remove the background without sacrificing the SNR.

Fluorescence has never been so informative! Thanks to the synergy between the #BrightEyes_TTM and the #SPAD array detector, we can perform #FLFS on living cells to simultaneously follow different dynamics parameters and fluorescence lifetime. (4/5)

Our time-tagging #DAQ module can collect single-photon signals from 25 independent channels and reference signals from 3 channels. We showed how this module combined with a #SPAD array allows us to perform #FLISM and #FLFS. (2/5)

This by David @Leasky is really rather good.

I've long found research and analysis on Spads and related political communication really interesting, and David's observations here seem fair and astute.

Canon Develops a Sensor that Can Shoot Full Color Photos in the Dark

Canon has developed an image sensor that is capable of capturing high-quality color photography even in the dark. The company says that it will be able to shoot clear photos even in situations where nothing is visible to the naked eye.

In a report from Nikkei, Canon says that it has developed a new type of light-receiving element called a single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) and is implementing it on a CMOS sensor. SPAD photodetector technology on its own isn't new, and has been in use since the 1970s. However, Canon has managed to create a sensor with 3.2 million pixels, which it says is more than three times the resolution of conventional SPADs and makes it the highest-resolution sensor of its type ever made.

The sensor is designed to replace, or at least provide an alternative to, infrared night vision cameras. Infrared is useful for recognizing shapes and providing sight in the dark, but is not capable of recognizing colors. On the flipside, cameras that can see color in the dark only do so by leveraging high ISOs, which can work to a certain point but eventually lead to extremely noisy images in levels of extreme darkness.

Nikkei adds that the SPAD sensor has an additional feature that allows it to measure the distance to an object from the time it takes for the reflected light to return to it, meaning it can understand space in three dimensions. As a result, it is possible that this sensor could be used on devices that currently leverage LiDAR.

Canon intends to launch the new sensor in security cameras first by 2023 and will begin mass production in 2022. According to Nikkei , Canon intends to use much of its existing CMOS image sensor manufacturing equipment to make the SPAD sensors which will save them time and money over having to build new factories or ship in new equipment. While there is currently a large amount of demand for sensors in the smartphone market, Canon and others are preparing for an uptick in demand in the autonomous sector in the coming years, namely for vehicles and robotics. 3D-capable sensors like the SPAD here will become more valuable, as the market is expected to be worth $15 billion by 2025.
