Source: Image Sensors World: First Commercial Curved CMOS Sensor from Startup CURVE

This is really interesting and I wonder how far into consumer and prosumer cameras this kind of sensor will migrate to.  The curvature of the sensor provides a lot of potential benefits including smaller lighter lenses with higher maximum aperture, less CA, and light falloff/color cast.  But if I understand this correctly, implies a fixed focus lens set up since you’d ideally want the sensor curve tuned to the lens.
