Hahaha ;)

This is a good aproach but it also requires a different kind of 
interpolation. Despite of capturing three colors at every pixel 
location, colors are not well separated and too much processing is 
needed to enhance color while suppressing noise. I am pretty sure bayer 
pattern is something like petrol. This technology is invented for sure 
(like hydrogen cars, etc...) but sensor manufacturers must earn money 
with these sensors to pay the high R&D cost before launching non-bayern 
pattern sensors.

Regards,

Dave
