Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/220696
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to reduce, in an imaging element equipped with polarizers for detecting polarization information for a subject, a decrease in the strength of the polarizers. An imaging element provided with a plurality of pixels. The plurality of pixels provided to the imaging element is provided with a color filter transmitting light of a prescribed wavelength from among incident light, and a polarizer for polarizing the incident light. The plurality of pixels generates an image signal based on incident light that has passed through the color filter and the polarizer. The polarizer provided to each of the plurality of pixels adjusts polarization in accordance with the color filter in the pixel to which the polarizer belongs.
