Abstract
Provided is a measurement device that includes a pixel including a light receiver, a plurality of storage sections, and an electric charge supplying section. The light receiver generates received-light electric charge by performing photoelectric conversion on the basis of light. The plurality of storage sections stores the received-light electric charge and the plurality of storage sections includes a first storage section and a second storage section. The electric charge supplying section selectively supplies the received-light electric charge generated by the light receiver to the plurality of storage sections. The measurement device includes a processor that generates a first detection value on the basis of an electric charge amount of the received-light electric charge stored in the first storage section, and generates a second detection value on the basis of an electric charge amount of the received-light electric charge stored in the second storage section. The processor generates a first pixel value on the basis of a difference between the first detection value and the second detection value.
