    摘要: An image sensor has at least two photodiodes in each unit pixel. A high dynamic range is achieved by selecting different exposure times for the photodiodes. Additionally, blooming is reduced. The readout timing cycle is chosen so that the short exposure time photodiodes act as drains for excess charge overflowing from the long exposure time photodiodes. To improve draining of excess charge, the arrangement of photodiodes may be further selected so that long exposure time photodiodes are neighbored along vertical and horizontal directions by short exposure time photodiodes. A micro-lens array may also be provided in which light is preferentially coupled to the long exposure time photodiodes to improve sensitivity.

    摘要: The embodiments described herein generally relate to systems and methods for modeling a user-initiated request to a business process application as an email form. It is often necessary for individuals to communicate, or exchange information, with a business application. Inefficiencies and delays arise where individuals are required to work within the context of the business application to accomplish desired actions or to determine the status of a requested action. By allowing a user to request an action from a business application using an email form, such inefficiencies and delays are minimized, if not eliminated altogether. A user may therefore initiate a request to a business application by working within the familiar and readily-available UI of the user's general-purpose email client and may receive status updates regarding such a request with the same UI of the original request.
