CMOS receiver array

The inner structure of a CMOS receiver array corresponds to electronic "Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS)" components while utilizing these components' sensitivity to light. The position of the measuring object is determined based on the brightness distribution that is read out. CMOS receiver arrays are typically used in displacement measurement sensors that operate according to the triangulation principle.
