Abstract :
This paper presents our activities on VLSI optosensors optimized for three-dimensional vision. A description of the integrated devices jointly developed for industrial and scientific applications will be given. All the sensors presented here have been fabricated using standard CMOS technology that allows the monolithic integration of photo-sensors, together with readout circuits, and digital signal processors.
