    摘要: A plurality of lenses (1a-1d) of a lens module (1), a plurality of wavelength selection regions (2a-2d) each having at least one optical filter, and a plurality of imaging regions (4a-4d) are placed in one-to-one correspondence. At least two of the plurality of wavelength selection regions transmit light in at least one wavelength band among infrared light, red light, green light, and blue light. The distance to an object is calculated based on at least two pieces of image information outputted respectively from at least two imaging regions respectively corresponding to the at least two wavelength selection regions. Furthermore, a camera module outputs an image signal based on image information outputted from at least one of the plurality of imaging regions. This can realize a small and low-cost camera module capable of measuring the distance to an object and capturing the object.

    摘要: A plurality of lenses 102a to 102d arranged in the same plane form a plurality of subject images on a plurality of imaging regions 104a to 104d. Vertical line directions and horizontal line directions of the pixel arrangement in the respective plurality of imaging regions are equal to one another among the plurality of imaging regions. Further, at least one pair of subject images received by at least one pair of imaging regions having a parallax in the vertical line (or horizontal line) direction among the plurality of imaging regions are shifted from each other by a predetermined amount in the horizontal line (or vertical line) direction. By performing pixel shifting in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which a parallax is generated, it always is possible to obtain a high-resolution image even when the subject distance varies.

    摘要: In a method for forming an image of a subject on a solid-state imaging device, a first time period for splitting a light beam from a subject into a plurality of light beams that have different polarization directions and then combining the plurality of light beams to form a single subject image on the solid-state imaging device and a second time period for splitting the light beam from the subject into the plurality of light beams that have different polarization directions and forming a plurality of subject images that overlap each other partially on the solid-state imaging device are switched time-wise. A first image information on the single subject image is obtained based on pieces of signal information in the first time period, and a second image information on one of the plurality of subject images is calculated by using and computing pieces of signal information in the second time period. Then, the high-resolution image of the subject is achieved by using the first image information and the second image information. In this way, it is possible to obtain an image with a high resolution and a reduced noise with substantially no loss of the light beam from the subject.
