PALO ALTO, Calif. -- The Measurement & Instrumentation practice at Frost & Sullivan is pleased to announce its 2008 Quarterly Analyst Briefing Presentation on the North American CMOS sensors market. The briefing is to be held on Thursday, June 26, 2008 at 12:00 p.m. PDT.

Image sensor applications are on the rise in the security market. CMOS sensors, due to their low price and feature enhancements, have been able to penetrate the medical and automotive markets, too. The low cost of CMOS image sensors has contributed to the reduction in the price of several electronic devices, such as digital still cameras.

This briefing will benefit image sensor manufacturers, system integrators, and manufacturers of consumer and industrial products, including cell phones, medical devices, automotive safety systems, and industrial security systems in all geographic regions.

"CMOS image sensors are mass produced to meet most low-end applications," states Frost & Sullivan Team Leader Dr. Rajender Thusu. "Their cost of production ranges between $4 to $10 depending on the design and type of applications. CCD image sensors are more popular and cost-effective in high-end, professional consumer electronic products, primarily because of their specialized and expensive manufacturing processes."

To participate in this briefing, please email Stephanie Ochoa, Corporate Communications, at stephanie.ochoa@frost.com with the following information: your full name, title, company name, company telephone number, company email address, city, state and country. Upon receipt of the above information, a registration link will be emailed to you.
