>We are still continuing sensor development. However, we are still in the "technology development phase" and have not yet begun actual sensor design. We are currently working on pixel architecture design.
>To be honest, the development project is a little behind schedule. This is because each time we prototype wafers and manufacture a prototype sensor, we discover new technical challenges. Since we have never designed a sensor independently before, we are currently learning through trial and error.
>While the Foveon team was previously at the forefront, the project is now primarily led by the engineering team at Sigma's headquarters in Japan. Fortunately, technical issues are gradually decreasing, and we feel that the challenges are gradually being narrowed down. Once we are confident that the sensor is technically feasible, we plan to officially move on to the sensor design phase and begin preparations for mass production.
How confident are you Sigma can make the full-frame Foveon happen, anon? Even if they can get it to market, how likely are you to invest in it?
