The present technology relates to an imaging device, an imaging method, and a program capable of setting a resolution based on a distance to a subject. A control unit which changes a resolution of a captured image on the basis of distance information, corresponding to the captured image, regarding a detected distance to a subject included in the image is included. The control unit changes a resolution of a portion of a region of the captured image on the basis of the distance information. The portion of the region is a region distant from another region. The control unit changes the resolution of the portion of the region such that the portion of the region becomes higher than a resolution of another region.

Imaging device, imaging method, and program

To provide an information processing device and an information processing method that can further shorten a time taken to perform processes related to an output of a captured image. Provided is an information processing device including a processing unit configured to process each piece of first data transferred with a first data density and second data transferred with a second data density that is different from the first data density based on pixel signals output from each of a plurality of pixels. The processing unit executes at least one of processing of outputting an image based on the first data and image-processing on the second data based on the first data.

Information processing device and information processing method

An imaging element outputs a display image with a low pixel count obtained as a result of thinning pixels included in the imaging element during the exposure period of a recording image with a high pixel count. A recording image correction unit receives an input of the recording image from a frame memory after an elapse of the exposure period, and corrects the pixel value of a defective pixel caused by the output of the display image from the imaging element, among pixels included in the recording image, by using the value of addition of the pixel values of display images output during the exposure period of the recording image, so that the pixel value of the defective pixel is corrected to the similar pixel value as that in the case of performing an exposure process for the exposure period of the recording image.

Imaging apparatus, image processing method, and program

[Object] To provide an information processing device and an information processing method that can further shorten a time taken to perform processes related to an output of a captured image. [Solution] Provided is an information processing device including a processing unit configured to process each piece of first data transferred with a first data density and second data transferred with a second data density that is different from the first data density based on pixel signals output from each of a plurality of pixels. The processing unit executes at least one of processing of outputting an image based on the first data and image-processing on the second data based on the first data.

An imaging device includes: a plurality of pixel units each of which includes a single read terminal and two or more pixels; and a controller that performs read operation with respect to each of the pixel units and starts, in each unit period, the read operation with respect to the predetermined number of the pixel units out of the plurality of the pixel units. The read operation includes sequentially reading pixel signals from the two or more pixels through the read terminal at a rate of one pixel every unit period.

Imaging device and control method thereof, and electronic apparatus

There is provided an image sensor including: a control unit configured to control pixels in a manner that a readout of a focus pixel signal from a focus detection pixel used for focusing and a readout of a main pixel signal from a pixel used for image generation are conducted independently; and an output unit configured to output the focus pixel signal and the main pixel signal independently from each other.
