Abstract
Event detection pixels with distortion correction are disclosed. In one example, a solid-state imaging device includes an optical system, a first pixel, a second pixel, a pixel array, and a signal processing circuit. The first pixel obtains image information based on luminance information via the optical system. The second pixel obtains event detection information based on a change in the luminance information via the optical system. The pixel array includes the first pixels and the second pixels in a two-dimensional array. The signal processing circuit selects whether or not to perform distortion correction on the event detection information obtained by the second pixel and performs signal processing.
