CILKY is all about using LEDs as sensels. They're not the most sensitive detectors, but they can behave entirely digital using photoconductive time-to-threshold measurement, and they are independently resettable. This makes them an excellent way to build a true time domain continuous imaging image evolutiion sensor, directly producing data compatible with TIK. In fact, the LEDs can still be operated as light sources, projecting as image while not sensing.
This is explained in our EI2026 paper Time domain continuous imaging using LED sensels (slides).
All the materials to help you build your own CILKY camera will soon be posted here.
