摘要: The present application provides a pixel structure, an image sensor, a device, an image processing method and a control method. The pixel structure includes a plurality of first pixels and a plurality of second pixels, where the first pixels adopt first photoelectric conversion elements arranged in an array and provided with high sensitivity, and the second pixels adopt second photoelectric conversion elements arranged in an array and provided with low sensitivity, to realize compatible recognition of high-brightness information and low-light information by the image sensor and improving the dynamic range; the first photoelectric conversion elements and the second photoelectric conversion elements adopt a design of independent output circuits to realize separate output of electrical signals without interfering with each other, which improves recognition reliability and signal utilization recognition; the overall performance of the image sensor can also be improved based on layout of the pixel structure of the present application.
