Abstract
Disclosed herein is a method of reducing noise captured by an image sensor. The method includes affixing a bottom surface of a glass covering to the image sensor, permitting light to impinge upon the glass covering, and shaping the glass covering such that when the light that impinges upon the glass covering impinges upon a sidewall of the glass covering, the sidewall reflects the light on a trajectory away from the image sensor.
