Title: Luca Cutrignelli: Time-of-Flight Sensor Innovations.

Introduction

Luca Cutrignelli is an inventor based in Brussels, Belgium, whose patent work focuses on time-of-flight sensing technology. He is associated with Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation and has 3 patents.

Latest Patents

Cutrignelli’s latest patent work includes “Sensor Exposure Mode Control and Sensor Exposure Mode Control Method.” The invention describes controlling a time-of-flight sensor with pixels that perform photoelectric conversion. In continuous exposure mode, the sensor reads out the pixels after one exposure interval. If pixel saturation is detected, the sensor can switch to split exposure mode, using multiple shorter exposure intervals and reading out the pixels after each interval.

Another latest patent is “Time-of-Flight Sensor and System.” It describes a system combining an illumination source, a time-of-flight camera, and host circuitry. The sensor’s logic circuitry uses sequencer and register circuitry to select register sets and generate different types of frames in a defined sequence. The host circuitry can configure the sequencer through a bus connection.

Career Highlights

Cutrignelli’s disclosed inventions address sensor operation, exposure control, and the processing and sequencing of data in time-of-flight systems. These technologies are designed to support flexible sensor readout and frame generation.
