摘要: An image sensor element for outputting an image signal. The image sensor element initially includes a first photoelement, the first photoelement being situated on a spatial area of a pixel on a semiconductor substrate. The image sensor element also includes a second photoelement that is doped and/or provided with a color filter in such a way that a spectral sensitivity of the first photoelement differs from a spectral sensitivity of the second photoelement. Lastly, the image sensor element includes an evaluation electronics system that is situated in the area of the pixel on the semiconductor substrate, the evaluation electronics system being situated in the area of the pixel in which the first photoelement is also implemented. The evaluation electronics system is designed to process a photoelement signal of the first photoelement and a photoelement signal of the second photoelement to form the image signal.
