The document is a term paper presentation about image sensors. It discusses the basics of pixels, fill factor, and the two main types of image sensors - CCD and CMOS. Pixels are the smallest units that make up an image and must have the same area, with only three tessellation shapes possible. Fill factor refers to the ratio of a pixel's light-sensitive area to its total area, with a higher fill factor making the sensor more sensitive. CCD sensors have advantages like low noise and high full well capacity but disadvantages like slow readout. CMOS sensors have advantages like high speed readout and low power consumption but disadvantages like higher readout noise and reduced dynamic range.
