Inventer of Digital Camera

The digital camera was invented in a prototype form by Kodak in 1975; space exploration in the 1960s first brought digital images in the spotlight instead of the conventional analog signal based pictures. Also digital cameras and television cameras essentially use similar technologies, one based on Charged Coupled Device. A precursor to the digital camera built by Sony in 1981 evolved out of the technology used in television and video cameras. The digital camera though was introduced in the market on a commercial scale compatible with PC's in 1994, the Apple Quick Take 100 Camera followed by the Kodak DC40 Camera in 1995.
