Eric Fossum, Dartmouth s John H. Krehbiel Sr. Professor for Emerging Technologies, has been announced as one of just a few recipients of the 72nd Annual Technology and Engineering Emmy® Awards. The honor, a first for Dartmouth engineering faculty, comes from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS) for inventing and pioneering the intra-pixel charge transfer CMOS image sensor the basis for all modern CMOS image sensors, including almost all cell-phone cameras, webcams, and many digital-still cameras.
“First and foremost, it makes me happy to see people using the technology to have fun and enjoy life. But honestly, it is also a little hard to wrap my head around how much impact it has had on society and business and medicine and so many facets of modern life,” said Fossum.
