Abstract

Silicon based sensors is a commonly used technology in digital cameras today. That has made such cameras relatively cheap and widely used. Unfortunately they are constructed to capture and represent image quality for humans. Several image applications work better without the restrictions of the visible spectrum. Human visual restrictions are often indirectly put on technology by using images showing only visible light. Thinking outside the box in this case is seeing beyond the visible spectrum.
