Abstract
To generate multiple types of images of the same subject, an electronic apparatus includes a drive control unit that controls the drive of an image sensor, a division unit that divides an image capture region of the image sensor into at least first and second regions, and an image generation unit that generates a first image by capturing an image of the same subject in the first region and generates a second image by capturing an image of the same subject in the second region.
Claims1
An imaging sensor comprising:
- a first chip, and
- a second chip stacked with the first chip,
- wherein the first chip includes:
- a first photoelectric converter that converts light into charge,
- a second photoelectric converter that is disposed adjacent to the first photoelectric converter in a row direction and converts light into charge,
- a third photoelectric converter that is disposed adjacent to the first photoelectric converter in a column direction and converts light into charge, and
- a fourth photoelectric converter that is disposed adjacent to the third photoelectric converter in the row direction and converts light into charge, and
- wherein the second chip includes a drive unit that controls
- a timing at which accumulation of the charge obtained from conversion by the first photoelectric converter ends,
- a timing at which accumulation of the charge obtained from conversion by the second photoelectric converter ends,
- a timing at which accumulation of the charge obtained from conversion by the third photoelectric converter ends, and
- a timing at which accumulation of the charge obtained from conversion by the fourth photoelectric converter ends.
