IMAGING CONTROL DEVICE, IMAGING APPARATUS, IMAGING CONTROL METHOD, AND IMAGING CONTROL PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18315468 titled 'IMAGING CONTROL DEVICE, IMAGING APPARATUS, IMAGING CONTROL METHOD, AND IMAGING CONTROL PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an imaging control device for controlling an imaging unit with a two-dimensional array of pixels.

  • The imaging control device includes a processor that performs various control functions.
  • The first control function involves starting exposure of the pixels at a specific timing and transferring the electric charges accumulated in the photoelectric conversion units to the charge holding units at a different timing.
  • The second control function is to read out signals corresponding to the electric charges transferred to the charge holding units.
  • The third control function is not specified in the abstract and would need to be further explained in the patent application.


Original Abstract Submitted

An imaging control device that controls an imaging unit including an imaging element in which a plurality of pixels each including a photoelectric conversion unit and a charge holding unit which holds electric charges to be transferred from the photoelectric conversion unit are two-dimensionally disposed, includes a processor, and the processor is configured to: perform a first control of starting exposure of the plurality of pixels at a first timing and of transferring electric charges accumulated in the photoelectric conversion units of the plurality of pixels by the exposure to the charge holding units at a second timing; perform a second control of reading out signals corresponding to the electric charges transferred to the charge holding units by the first control; and perform a third control as defined herein.
