Title:
IMAGE PICKUP DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2014155034
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To raise the sensitivity of an image pickup device without causing a Bayer array image pickup signal to get mixed in color and minimizing a decline in resolution.SOLUTION: An in-plane pixel addition unit (20) selects a peripheral pixel having a highest correlation with a designated pixel and adds it to generate an in-plane sensitization signal (VAL), and generates information (PAT) indicating a pattern of a region configured with the selected peripheral pixel and the designated pixel. An inter-plane pixel addition unit (30) selects one of pixels at the same position as a pixel of interest and in its periphery in each of neighbor frames and adds the selected pixel. This selection is carried out on the basis of a match/mismatch of patterns (PAT) of the addition pixel and a correlation of the in-plane sensitization signal (VAL).
