Bayer Filter

A Bayer filter mosaic is a color filter array (CFA) for arranging RGB color filters on a square grid of photosensors. The word comes from the name of its inventor, Dr. Bryce E. Bayer of Eastman Kodak, and describes an arrangement of color filters used in most single-chip digital image sensors used in digital cameras, camcorders, and scanners to create a color image. The filter pattern is 50% green, 25% red and 25% blue, and is also called RGBG or GRGB.
