This is the basis of the United States patent issued on May 14, 1991. The 1989 version of the digital camera, known as the Ecam (electronic camera). It on RAM memory, then getting it onto digital magnetic tape. But that solution led to another challenge - storing To store the image, he decided to use what was at that time a relatively new process - digitalization - turning the electronic pulses into numbers. couldn’t hold it because the electrical pulses quickly dissipated. Sasson wanted to captureĪn image with it, but the C.C.D. He quickly ordered a couple of them and set out to evaluate the devices, which consisted of a sensor that took an incoming two dimensional light pattern and converted it into an electrical signal. It was just a project to keep me from getting into trouble doing “Hardly anybody knew I was working on this, because it wasn’t that big of a project,” Mr. Sasson was given a seemingly unimportant task - to see whether there was any practical use for a charged coupled device (C.C.D.), which had been invented a few years earlier. The industry that was dominated by his Rochester employer and set off a decade of complaints by professional photographers fretting over the ruination of their profession. Sasson, all of 24 years old, invented the process that allows us to make photos with our phones, send images around the world in seconds and share them with millions of people. Two years later he invented digital photography and made the first digital camera. Such a world existed inġ973, when Steven Sasson, a young engineer, went to work for Eastman Kodak. A world without iPhones or Instagram, where one company reigned supreme. Imagine a world where photography is a slow process that is impossible to master without years of study or apprenticeship.
