Article: Recent findings in analytical science described by researchers from Capital Normal University.

According to recent research from Beijing, People's Republic of China, "Dynamic range is a critical figure of merit for an imaging system; it describes the observable range of brightness. This paper introduces the design of a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) camera for astronomical imaging using the IBIS5 sensor."

"The camera achieves a high dynamic range by multi-slope response using variable reset voltages. A method to convert an image captured in multi-slope response into a linear image, and thus obtain higher contrast, is developed and analysed. Finally, observation results of the sun and the moon with this camera are presented," wrote Y.Y. ...
