Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that buffer events in device memory during synchronous readout of a plurality of frames by a sensor. Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that disable a sensor communication link until the buffered events are sufficient for transmission by the sensor. In some implementations, the sensor using a synchronous readout may select a readout mode for one or more frames based on how many of the pixels are detecting events. In some implementations, a first mode that reads out only data for a low percentage of pixels that have events uses the device memory and a second mode bypasses the device memory based on accumulation criteria such as high percentage of pixels detecting events. In the second mode, less data per pixel may be readout.

Abstract: An image sensor includes a photosensitive sensor, a floating diffusion node, a reset transistor, and a source follower transistor. The reset transistor comprises a first source/drain coupled to the floating diffusion node and a second source/drain coupled to a first voltage source. The source follower transistor comprises a gate coupled to the floating diffusion node and a first source/drain coupled to the second source/drain of the reset transistor. A first elongated contact contacts the second source/drain of the reset transistor and the first source/drain of the source follower transistor. The first elongated contact has a first dimension in a horizontal cross-section and a second dimension in the horizontal cross-section. The second dimension is perpendicular to the first dimension, and the second dimension is less than the first dimension.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed to accurately measure the integration or accumulation of charge measured by photosite readout circuitry due to a photodiode generated current, which is generated by a photodiode as a result of impinging light reflected onto the photodiode that forms part of an imaging sensor. The techniques described herein address shortcomings of photosite operation by using a series of sequential switching states that function to maintain the charge accumulated during idle sampling times between active detection windows.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a display control device, a display control method, and a program enabling images to be checked in real time.
A display control device includes: a receiving unit that receives small volume data that is information on current imaging by an artificial satellite; and a control unit that displays a live view image based on the small volume data on a display unit, wherein the receiving unit receives a satellite image corresponding to the live view image as large volume data at a timing different from that of the small volume data. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a satellite image processing system that processes satellite images captured by artificial satellites.
