Overview
The figure on the right depicts a (very) simplified model of digital image acquisition. In the diagram, a luminous source stochastically emits $ \bar{N} $ photons per second. A fraction $ F_O $ of the emitted photons lands on a semiconductor detector. Incident photons cause little balls (electrons) to fall out of the detector. The balls fall into a red bucket. At regular intervals, the bucket gets dumped out on to a table where the friendly vampier Count von Count counts them.
