LOFIC
Lateral OverFlow Integration Capacitor
A technology that integrates a small capacitor behind each pixel of a camera sensor. This allows each pixel to collect more electrons, representing more light. This greatly increases the full range of brightness that each pixel can measure at once.
This allows the capture of HDR images in a single exposure. Camera sensors without LOFIC typically need to capture multiple exposures at once or in rapid succession, then combine them, to create an HDR image.

LOFIC sensors can have advantages in image quality, capture speed, and power efficiency.
