Abstract:
A distance image sensor includes a light source that generates pulsed light, a light source control means for controlling the light source, a pixel circuit including a photoelectric conversion region, charge readout regions, a charge discharge region, and control electrodes, a charge transfer control means for sequentially applying a control pulse to the control electrodes, and a distance calculation means for reading voltages of the charge readout regions as detection signals and repeatedly calculating a distance on the basis of the detection signals, and the charge transfer control means sets timings of the control pulses so that delay times of the control pulses with respect to a generation timing of the pulsed light is shifted to a time differing between the four types of subframe periods in one frame period.
