An imaging system has a imaging array on a semiconductor chip which also includes circuit the elements NPU and SRAM to rapidly identify target objects in the imaging data and output their high level representations with low power consumption.

Image sensor with embedded neural processing unit

A method for rapidly starting up an imaging system and an imaging system using the method is provided by reducing the time required to acquire the AEC and AGC parameters required for visually appealing imaging. The method employs an initial fast frame rate and binning and skipping to determine AEC and AGC parameters for use in subsequent normal frame rate imaging.

Method for rapidly starting up an image sensor and an imaging system using the method

A compact high frame rate image sensing system has a three CMOS semiconductor circuit chip stack formation, and an imaging method thereof. The bottom chip has an array of light sensitive regions and structures to capture an image. The middle chip includes a Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) or a Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) frame buffer circuit. The top chip includes image processing and logic circuit elements to rapidly extract an image or its main characteristics as determined by a boundary detecting filter block. The image sensing system also includes a compiling tool to provide the programming parameters to the programmable filter blocks in order to optimize the image sensing system for a specific motion detection application.
