Title:
SOLID-STATE IMAGING ELEMENT, IMAGING DEVICE, AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SOLID-STATE IMAGING ELEMENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/100399
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A solid-state imaging element that corrects a black spot, wherein the accuracy of correction is improved. The solid-state imaging element comprises an assessment unit and a correction unit. In the solid-state imaging element, the assessment unit assesses whether both of a reset level generated by initialization of a pixel of interest that is focused on from among a plurality of pixels and a reset level generated by initialization of an adjacent pixel that is adjacent to the pixel of interest exceed a prescribed threshold value. The correction unit corrects a pixel signal generated by the pixel of interest when the reset levels of both of the pixel of interest and the adjacent pixel exceed the threshold value.
