EU-funded consortium will develop image sensing tech
-
The Technology for European iNdependence in Space Image Sensor (TEN-SIS) project will address the EU-based development of advanced CMOS imaging sensors. The project will aim to create a strategic, competitive advantage for European prime and equipment manufacturers and reduce the dependence on critical technologies and capabilities from outside the EU. It will run for three years.
[...]
Several industrial partners working on the project all bring valuable expertise. Teledyne e2v Semiconductors SAS (France) and Teledyne Innovaciones Microelectronicas (Spain) will oversee the project, design the detectors, including the pixel, while imec (Belgium) will manage the development of the optical stack on top of the CMOS detector including filters and optical microlenses.
Airbus Defence and Space SAS (France) will spearhead the development of the test equipment and assess the performance of the detector prototypes. Alter Technology Tüv Nord (Spain) will validate the smaller 4K x 4K detector for use in the space environment.
“TENSIS will result in the development of advanced image sensors for space that are high-resolution and durable against space conditions,” said Marc Iliozer, Project & Engineering Director, Teledyne e2v. “The project will help establish strategic capability in Europe and ensure independence in space technology for years to come.”

So not only are we looking for aliens and their signals we're also looking for their memes.
I look forward to seeing these images that exist out in space
