SOLID-STATE IMAGING DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/248827
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are light detecting devices including pixel arrays having main pixels and sub-pixels. More than half of the main pixels may have clear filters, yellow color filters, or no color filters. The sub-pixels may have color filters of different colors, such as red, blue, and green color filters. Some of the main pixels may have red color filters. A processor may be used to generate image data based on signals from the main pixels and sub-pixels. Interpolation may be used to calculate intermediate main pixel signals for positions between the main pixels and intermediate sub-pixel signals for positions between the sub-pixels. The light detecting devices may be included in automotive camera systems and included in vehicles. A vehicle control system may control a vehicle based on image data generated using the light detecting device.
