Who invented the digital camera? This device was first created by Eastman Kodak engineer Steven Sasson in 1975. The camera used a solid state CCD image sensor chips manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor. The device weighed 3.6 kilograms and it took above 20 seconds to capture an image.
Unfortunately, as with Texas Instruments employee Willis Adcock's filmless camera (US patent 4,057,830) in 1972, the technology had yet to catch up with the concept. Steven Sasson as an engineer at Eastman Kodak invented and built the first electronic camera using a charge-coupled device image sensor in 1975.
