A chip is developed to track the positions and movements of stars and other celestial bodies. The 111-megapixel CCD (charge coupled device) image sensor is built by DALSA Semiconductor. Semiconductor Technology Associates developed the chip, which will be used by the U.S. Naval Observatory’s (USNO) astrometry department.
The surface of the sensor is about 4 inches square, offering 10,560 by 10,560 pixels. And this gives it a resolution of more than 111 million pixels.
