caption_attribution_description: English: Cromemco Cyclops: First all-digital camera with solid-state area image sensor. Original design appeared in the February 1975 issue of Popular Electronics Español: La cámara Cyclops era la primera cámara completamente digital.
context_page_description: The Cromemco Cyclops, introduced in 1975 by Cromemco, was the first commercial all-digital camera using a digital metal-oxide-semiconductor image sensor. It was also the first digital camera to be interfaced to a microcomputer. The digital sensor for the camera was a modified 1 kb dynamic RAM memory chip that offered a resolution of 32 × 32 pixels.

It was also the first digital camera to be interfaced to a microcomputer. The digital sensor for the camera was a modified 1 kb dynamic RAM (DRAM) memory chip that offered a resolution of 32 × 32 pixels (0.001 megapixels).
