Abstract
A method for operating an image sensor, which has pixels arranged in rows and columns, includes the read-out, in which pixels of a first subarea of the image sensor are read out to obtain a first item of subimage information using a first parameter set, and in which pixels of at least one second subarea of the image sensor are read out to obtain a second item of subimage information using a second parameter set, which is different from the first parameter set.
Claims13
A method for operating an image sensor, which has pixels situated in rows and columns, the method comprising:
- reading out pixels of a first subarea of the image sensor to obtain a first item of subimage information using a first parameter set;
- and
- reading out pixels of at least one second subarea of the image sensor to obtain a second item of subimage information using a second parameter set, which is different from the first parameter set.
A control unit for operating an image sensor, which has pixels arranged in rows and columns, comprising:
- a device to read out pixels of a first subarea of the image sensor, to obtain a first item of subimage information using a first parameter set, and to read out pixels of at least one second subarea of the image sensor, to obtain a second item of subimage information using a second parameter set, which is different from the first parameter set.
An image sensor, comprising:
- a control unit for operating an image sensor, which has pixels arranged in rows and columns, including:
- a device to read out pixels of a first subarea of the image sensor, to obtain a first item of subimage information using a first parameter set, and to read out pixels of at least one second subarea of the image sensor, to obtain a second item of subimage information using a second parameter set, which is different from the first parameter set.
A machine-readable storage medium having a computer program, which is executable by a processor, comprising:
- a program code arrangement having program code for operating an image sensor, which has pixels situated in rows and columns, by performing the following:
- reading out pixels of a first subarea of the image sensor to obtain a first item of subimage information using a first parameter set;
- and
- reading out pixels of at least one second subarea of the image sensor to obtain a second item of subimage information using a second parameter set, which is different from the first parameter set.
