 We'll focus on the two main families of digital sensors: CCD and CMOS.
 
 In both families, the actual light sensing is based on the electron-hole pair generation in MOS devices.
 
 ### CCD
 
+![](img/ccd.png)
+
 In CCD sensors, the generated charges in the photodiodes are accumulated under a potential well, controlled by a voltage on the gate.
 
 Charges can be moved to a neighboring pixel by performing a specific sequence on the gates. By shifting the charges all the way to the edge of the sensor, individual pixel values can be readout sequentially.

+## color
+
+The most common way of capturing color images with a digital sensor is a Bayer filter, interleaving color filters in front of pixels in this pattern:

+
+For every red or blue pixel, there are two green ones. This is to mimic the human eye's increased sensitivity to green light.
+
+Without getting into the hellscape of color spaces, here is a standard formula to convert between RGB (red, green, blue) and YUV (luminance, chrominance) values:
+
+$$
+\begin{bmatrix}
+Y\\
+U\\
+V
+\end{bmatrix}
+=
+\begin{bmatrix}
+0.299 & 0.587 & 0.114\\

+The luminance $Y$ can be thought of as a grayscale value. The coefficients in the matrix show that green values have twice the impact of red ones, and that blue values are the weakest.

 # Aperture
 
+An aperture gives control over the amount of light entering the lens. It's effectively equivalent to having a smaller lens diameter.

+
+Aperture values are often expressed as f-numbers, defined as a ratio between the aperture diameter and the focal length of the lens:
 
-<!-- source:https://www.adorama.com/alc/camera-basics-aperture/ -->
+$$f_{\rm number} = \frac{d_{\rm aperture}}{f}$$

+This quantity is directly related to the light density reaching the sensor.
