SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING PIXEL ARRAY SENSOR WITH INDEPENDENTLY CONTROLLED SUB PIXELS

摘要

A system for controlling a pixel array sensor with independently controlled sub pixels is provided herein. The system includes at least one image detector, comprising an array of photo-sensitive pixels, each photo-sensitive pixel comprising at least one first type photo-sensitive sub pixel and plurality of second type photo-sensitive sub pixels; and a processor configured to control the at least first type controlled photo-sensitive sub pixel and the plurality of second type second type photo-sensitive sub pixels according to a specified exposure scheme, wherein the processor is further configured to control the at least one first type sub pixel independently of the specified exposure scheme, wherein the processor is further configured to selectively combine data coming from the at least one first type sub pixel with data coming from at least one of the plurality of second type sub pixels.

1. A system comprising:
at least one image detector, comprising an array of photo-sensitive pixels, each photo-sensitive pixel comprising at least one first type photo-sensitive sub pixel and at least one second type photo-sensitive sub pixel; and a processor configured to control the at least one first type controlled photo-sensitive sub pixel and the at least one second type photo-sensitive sub pixels according to a specified exposure scheme, wherein an exposure of at least one of the first type photo-sensitive sub pixel is synchronized with pulsed light present in the scene, to achieve gated images of the scene wherein the processor is further configured to control the at least one first type sub pixel independently of the specified exposure scheme, and wherein the processor is further configured to selectively combine data coming from the at least one first type sub pixel with data coming from the at least one second type sub pixel.
