    摘要: A dynamic vision sensor (DVS) including a plurality of substrates electrically connected to one another and stacked vertically includes a photoelectric conversion device configured to generate charges in response to incident light from an external environment that is external to the DVS sensor, a bipolar junction transistor (BJT) device including a base connected to the photoelectric conversion device and configured to output a current based on amplifying a current output from the photoelectric conversion device, and a DVS pixel circuit that detects a change in intensity of the incident light and to output an event signal based on the current. The photoelectric conversion device is on a first substrate among the plurality of substrates. At least part of the DVS pixel circuit is on a different substrate from the first substrate among the plurality of substrates.

    摘要: Provided is an image sensor. The image sensor including a plurality of pixels, and processing circuitry configured to, generate first image data by converting optical signals received by each of the plurality of pixels during a first exposure time into electrical signals, generate event data including information related to a change in intensity of the optical signals received by each of the plurality of pixels during the first exposure time, the event data having a frame rate greater than a frame rate of the first image data, receive the first image data and the event data, and generate output data by sequentially packing the first image data and the event data corresponding to the first exposure time.

    摘要: An imaging device includes an image sensor configured to generate a plurality of original images, and an image processor configured to generate a merged image based on the plurality of original images. The image processor is configured to generate the merged image by classifying the plurality of original images into a plurality of stitching groups based on a first stitching direction, stitching original images included in a same stitching group to generate a plurality of intermediate images, and stitching the plurality of intermediate images based on a second stitching direction to generate the merged image.
