Abstract
On November 13, 2012 Bryce Bayer was gathered unto his forefathers. His many obituaries focused on his development of what is called today the Bayer Color Filter Array, which is used to encode color in digital imaging systems that use CCDs or CMOS sensors to capture a color image. There have been many attempts to replace the Bayer CFA, but today almost all digital cameras still use it. However, Bryce has contributed much more to imaging than his CFA including his work on Random Dot Model for film, the Bayer Dither for halftone technology and his Moving Hadamard Transform for image processing. All these significant achievements will be discussed.
