Well, in the wonderful world of digital photography there has been new technology looming on the horizon for a while now. It's a new sensor called the X3. It comes from a company called Foveon Inc.

The X3 uses the properties of light waves to extract three colors. RGB. The technology used today pulls one color and then fudges the rest of the data. The X3 increases image quality immensly.

This article discusses some of the technology and its creators. Headed by the "simple ideas" of Carver Mead.
