Abstract
The present technology relates to a solid-state image capturing device and an electronic device which are capable of improving detection accuracy for polarization information and color information. The solid-state image capturing device includes a pixel array unit including a plurality of polarizing pixels configured to detect polarization information, and a plurality of color pixels configured to detect color information. The polarizing pixels are arranged in a row direction and a column direction in a grid form. The color pixels are arranged in the row direction and the column direction in the grid form between the polarizing pixels that are adjacent, at positions shifted from the polarizing pixels in the row direction and the column direction. For example, the present technology can be applied to the solid-state image capturing device.
