Abstract
An imaging apparatus includes an image sensor in which a plurality of area sensors arranged adjacent to each other to form an image sensor. A control circuit controls timing for reading out image data from each of the plurality of the area sensors based on area sensor arrangement information concerning the arrangement of each of the plurality of the area sensors.
Claims11
An imaging apparatus comprising:
- an image sensor in which a plurality of area sensors, each area sensor having a plurality of pixels is arranged one-dimensionally or two-dimensionally;
- and
- a control circuit configured to control timing for reading out image data from each of the plurality of the area sensors based on area sensor arrangement information concerning arrangement of each of the plurality of the area sensors.
An imaging apparatus comprising:
- an image sensor in which a plurality of area sensors configured to include a plurality of pixels is arranged one-dimensionally or two-dimensionally;
- and
- a control circuit configured to control a write address used for writing image data read out from each of the plurality of the area sensors into a memory based on area sensor arrangement information concerning arrangement of each of the plurality of the area sensors.
An imaging apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of area sensors arranged adjacent to each other to form an image sensor, each of the plurality of area sensors having a plurality of pixels;
- a storage unit configured to store area sensor arrangement information corresponding to each of the plurality of sensors that form the image sensor;
- and
- a control circuit configured to control timing for reading out image data from each of the plurality of area sensors based on the area sensor information stored in the storage unit.
