New Sony sensor technology is much faster than current sensors

In addition to the earlier-this-week 12mp 1/2.3" 42fps sensor, Sony has even faster technology in the pipeline according to an article in the subscriber-only section of Nikkei. A Tokyo-based blogger at Crunchgear has spotted this! The new technology can "convert multiple pixels into signals simultaneously", it is not power hungry, and it can do 120fps video at 17.7 megapixels (34.8Gbps throughput) [via Image Sensors World] {correction: it is 34.8Gbps, not 34.8GBps}
