Sony, Samsung, Toshiba, Toppan Have Image Sensor/LiDAR Papers at the VLSI Symposia in June

The VLSI Symposia are coming up on June 12 – 17, at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in Honolulu, and recently their media associates released the tipsheet describing some of the upcoming papers. The detailed program is available here. Since the development of mobile phone camera image sensors, they have been a hot topic with continuous evolution to sub-micron pixels, and more recently the move towards self-driving cars (and other ranging needs) is pushing LiDAR systems. Scanning through the tipsheet, I noticed image sensor papers by Samsung and Sony, and ranging talks from Toshiba and Toppan.
