I came straight from the comment thread on Vulnerability and I present you the mentioned drawing. I can’t believe you made that pun in the last chapter without stumbling across this picture :D I wish I could credit the original but I found it on Pinterest and had no luck in tracing it to the original source :/

Yo thank you so much for sharing this drawing, it's fUCKIN perfect lmfaooo

Pixel and matrix size, its resolution and aperture in the smartphone camera

The popularity of smartphones has been growing rapidly for over 10 years. Of course, companies adequately respond to huge demand, constantly improving their models. Traditionally, the competitiveness of any device depends on its price, functionality and specs. The price and functionality are not covered in this article. But in general, competition forces companies to expand intensively functionality and pursue flexible pricing policies. As a result, a modern budget smartphone worth several hundred dollars already provides opportunities that seem unlimited compared to models 5 years ago. Blackview MAX 1 Projector Mobile Phone with a projector function, Desktop Mode in Android Q 10 and foldable smartphones perfectly illustrate this trend. In fact, the modern smartphone has become a universal pocket PC with fairly high-quality media functions, including a camera, projector, etc. Of course, competitiveness requires continuous improvement of all components, including smartphone performance, camera, Smartphone Storage, OS, screen etc. In particular, the improvement of cameras is developing in two directions. First, companies increase the number of different cameras, expanding shooting opportunities. As a result, modern multi-camera smartphones provide high image quality when shooting in almost any conditions. A list of the most popular add-on modules includes Ultra-Wide, Telefoto, Depth and ToF cameras. Today even budget models often use two cameras. Modern flagships usually have three or more modules. Moreover, Sony announced a smartphone with an unprecedented 8 cameras.

Secondly, companies continue to traditionally improve the main specs of matrices and lenses. This article offers a more detailed analysis of this aspect.

Resolution, Pixel size and aperture

As known, the matrix forms an image using photosensitive cells (photosensors). 1 MP corresponds to a million photosensors on the matrix. They determines the resolution of the matrix and directly affects the image quality. A few years ago, smartphones have mainly used a 0.5-megapixel, 1.3-megapixel or 2-megapixel matrix. Only some flagships had 5-MP cameras. The rapid development of the production technology of photosensors has radically changed the situation. Modern models already use matrices with a resolution of 8 MP to 40 MP and even more.

The pixel size directly affects the number of absorbed photons during exposure. Accordingly, the photon flux capture efficiency is different for matrices with different pixel sizes. This factor directly affects image quality. Its gradations are: - 1.55 μm-1.40 μm - high quality even in low light; - 1.40 μm-1.22 μm - high quality in normal lighting, image noise in low light; - 1.12 μm or less - high quality only in bright conditions. But increasing the pixel size with the same resolution requires an increase in the matrix size and optics, which increases the thickness and width of the smartphone. Therefore, companies are forced to constantly seek compromise solutions. Bright detailed images require a powerful light output, which depends on the aperture (degree of lens openness).

Accordingly, a wide aperture absorbs more light flux. Its size is denoted by "f". Wide aperture provides macro photography, bokeh effect, etc. The effect of aperture on quality: - f / 2.6, f / 2.4 - low quality; - f / 2.2, f / 2.0 - usually used in budget models; - f / 1.8, f / 1.7, f / 1.6 - the optimal aperture.

Image sensor size

The matrix is a chip with photosensitive photodiodes. As known, a photodiode under the influence of light forms an electrical signal, which is subsequently converted into a digital signal. In fact, the matrix performs the function of a film in traditional cameras. In the future, information about the image goes to the processor, which converts it and sends it to the smartphone’s storage. On average, this process lasts 0.2-0.3 seconds. At the same time, the picture quality directly depends on the matrix size. Modern models use matrices with the following diagonal: - 1/3"- budget smartphones; - 1/2.9", 1/2.8" - mid-level models; - 1/2.6", 1/2.3" - flagship smartphones.

For example, the diagonal of a 12-megapixel Sony IMX386 matrix in Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 is 1 / 2.9" (6.2 mm) and the pixel size is 1.25 microns.

The ratio between the size of the matrix and pixel

Of course, a large number of pixels (resolution) requires an increase in their density.

But for a constant matrix size, this requires a reduction in pixels size with a decrease in absorption of light by each of them. Thus, only the choice of the optimal ratio can ensure maximum image quality. For marketing reasons, most companies often do not specify pixels size, indicating only the matrix resolution. But the resolution does not characterize the efficiency of light absorption, and, as a result, the real quality of the images. Today, companies are experimenting with this ratio. Samsung Galaxy S6 perfectly demonstrated very successful combination.

With the same specs, it clearly wins compared to the iPhone 6.

In addition, Samsung Galaxy S7, S8, S9 with a 12-megapixel matrix also demonstrate excellent quality due to the large pixel size.

Super Pixel (Quad Pixel, Quad Bayer, TetraCell) technology

Having reached a huge resolution (48 megapixels, 64 megapixels and more), companies began to look for other ways to further improve the camera. As a result, Super Pixel technology using Pixel Binning was developed. In fact, this algorithm combines four small pixels into one large pixel using filters.

Almost all leaders use this technology. Sony calls it Quad Bayer, Samsung uses the TetraCell term. Mixing pixels eliminates the problem of low light. The algorithm combines RAW data from four pixels into one effective super-pixel, providing the maximum amount of captured light while reducing image noise. Of course, it reduces the actual image resolution. For example, a 24-megapixel camera with Super Pixel technology can provide a real resolution of only 6 megapixels. Therefore, cameras with low resolution rarely use this option. Its effectiveness is manifested in 40-megapixel matrices and higher. In this case, the algorithm improves quality in low light conditions by reducing over-resolution. In addition to reducing resolution, this technology also eliminates the output of the RAW (DNG) format due to data loss during the Pixel Binning.

OIS and autofocus

Many modern cameras use OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) to increase clarity and improve focus when shooting in motion or in low light.

In fact, OIS provides amortization to compensate for camera movements during movement. The optical stabilization mechanism smoothes shaking hands or movement while walking. Functionally, OIS replaces the traditional tripod. Budget models often use digital stabilization instead of the more efficient and expensive optical stabilization. In this case, the algorithm smoothes gradations of blurry frames. In addition, almost all modern cameras have autofocus on one or more objects. Today, companies use contrast, phase and laser autofocus. But laser autofocus provides maximum efficiency.

Conclusion

1. The resolution of the image sensors in the cameras of smartphones has almost reached its maximum. Its further increase is already limited by a decrease in captured light due to a decrease in pixel size. Apparently, further improvement of the cameras will be based on increasing the matrice size and improving the signal processing algorithms. 2. On the other hand, even medium-budget models provide high enough quality for amateur photography. Many expensive smartphones are already successfully competing with traditional cameras for picture quality. This video demonstrates latest innovative Sony IMX686 image sensor for smartphones.

@cheapcheapfaker You have been blessed by Bobby and he wishes you a good day!

Oh! I've learned how to make GIFS in my editing program! One like and I'll share my first gif of our old doggo!

[peculiarxafternoon]

it's my birthday!! that's it lol i just wanted to share that im an adult now officially and damn. i always thought i would feel so much more mature when I'd reach this place in my life but i just smiled at pixelsated men wishing me a happy birthday for 10 minutes ://. so like. not much has changed. i just have to pay taxes now.

on another note, are there any readings you guys would like to see? i don't really want to delve into fs or soulmate readings yet, but if you have any fun ideas about other subjects, tell me! i would love to cater my content to your interests more.

also, thank you for the love on this account. i am so, so grateful for everyone here.

Tumblr says I can only tag 50 people but I don't know if the rest of the names actually got tagged so I left them there. I had to hand type all those I could tag because copy and pasting didn't work (and then some of those folks wouldn't even tag) so bear with me. I just don't want to see this spread because folks don't understand. I don't know if those 7-8 notes on both of the Ray-Bans posts are bots or actual people but better safe than sorry.

Did some fast pixels again. 1x1 Pixelsize in 7 Colors . 320 x 175 resolution-  strange image in a strange size!  I title it : strange fish. well - sometimes I have to follow my mood ;) But I like the palette.

[arboribus]

I made pixelses :0

[fangpyres]

im gonna start putting javascript code in all my posts and see how long it takes staff to old yeller me

let pixelSize = 10; let rows, columns; let sqaures = []; let clrs = []; let fr = 50; let rPos = 0; let cPos = 0; function setup(){ createCanvas(windowWidth, windowHeight); frameRate(fr); rows = width/pixelSize; columns = height/pixelSize; let r; let g; let b; let st; r = floor(random(0, 255)); g = floor(random(0, 255)); b = floor(random(0, 255)); clrs[1] = color(r, g, b); st = floor(random(20,50)); clrs[2] = color(r+st, g+st, b+st); clrs[3] = color(r-st, g-st, b-st); clrs[4] = color(g, b, r); clrs[5] = color(g+st, b+st, r+st); clrs[6] = color(g-st, b-st, r-st); clrs[7] = color(b, r, g); clrs[8] = color(b+st, r+st, g+st); clrs[9] = color(b-st, r-st, g-st); clrs[0] = color(255-st); clrs[10] = color(0+st); } function draw(){ noStroke(); fill(random(clrs)); rect(rPos*pixelSize, cPos*pixelSize, pixelSize, pixelSize); if (rPos < rows){ rPos++; } else { rPos = 0; } if (cPos < columns){ cPos++; } else { cPos = 0; } }

pixelsize said: “#May I add one little observation I made: Viktor takes those risks because of all the aforementioned and because if it backfires it’s only HIM who’s in danger. Jayce was already banished from the academy, he couldn’t get any lower. Getting killed in the Undercity is also only a consequence for Viktor. The HexCore augmentation was supposed to be just Viktor who’s already dying. He’s got nothing to loose. But Sky barges in. And now Viktors recklessness towards HIMSELF got another person killed.”

daydreamer-phd said: “#In the name of science and the people in need. I think he doesn't necessarily believe he will get it right, he just only values his life for the potential to save others, so he thinks it's worth taking the risk and the pain. I thik the arrogance lies in his isolation. He doesn't think anyone else willl / can help him with that task, and that is because of confirmation bias. He should be more in contact with the people he pretends to save”

Ever since I learned that Viktor got into the Academy by pretending to be a student until he impressed Heimerdinger enough to stay, his character arc becomes a lot more clear.

He starts out with sneaking into a university, something that could that could get him arrested but it pays off. He meets a disgraced academic with a theory he likes and is immediately on board with breaking and entering and tampering with evidence on the off chance that this’ll work out, and it does, beyond his wildest dreams. He decides to go visit Zaun in the middle of a blockade and manages to get the Shimmer he needs and not get shot. He does a highly dangerous experiment with the Hexcore, and his leg gets better. He does an even bigger experiment….and his lab assistant gets disintegrated right in front of him, and it becomes clear that the Hexcore has become dangerous and he can’t control it or destroy it.

Viktor’s entire arc through the show (or at least the first season) is him taking larger and larger risks in the name of science and having them pay off against all odds, right up until the moment it doesn’t. It’s a much more interesting story about arrogance than “dumbass says he’s God and gets ironically smote by lightning”, because it happens so naturally and so slowly that you can’t even see it coming until it punches you in the face. It’s not an overblown ego or obvious pride, it’s simple confirmation bias, and it’s vastly more relatable and terrifying in that way.

pixelsize replied to your post: I love how pretty much everyone has a story about...

I have fallen down the roof out of pure scare at the same point in the first mission.

I wish I could draw so I could immortalize this image.

That's like the nicest thing to say to me, thank you so much @pixelsize ;v; ❤��

"Intriguing ..."

This was meant to be a series of sassy, flirty looking Viktors but that one was all I was able to draw. ;___; I tried a different brush and really gave up on his arms lol. Somehow he looks very different every time I draw him. 😂

Anyway POV: here is Viktor giving you a sly smirk. He's probably reading your diary lol.

I love sassy Viktor >:3c
