Abstract
A light receiving unit includes photoelectric conversion elements () in which first pixels () are arrayed linearly along a long side of a parallelogram-shaped semiconductor substrate () and second pixels () are arrayed linearly at a location separated away from the first pixels () by a predetermined interpolation pixel distance. An output data processor that generates image data based on outputs of the photoelectric conversion elements () performs time correction of the image data by coupling image data based on outputs of the second pixels () with image data based on outputs of the first pixels () that have a time shift equal to a scanning time corresponding to the interpolation pixel distance.
