Abstract
The columns of a charge transfer imager are arranged in groups with N columns in each group, each column of a group receiving light through a different color filter. Upon the completion of the integration time, each line is shifted out of the imager 1/N'th of a line at a time, each N'th of a line representing a different color component of the image. The different parts of each line subsequently are read serially and concurrently to obtain the N color signal components of each resolution element of the imager.
