Abstract
There is provided a signal processing device, a signal processing method, and a detection sensor that enable detection of flicker information from an output indicating a luminance change. The signal processing device includes: a count unit that counts a first count number, which is a count number of pixels in which a first luminance change in a positive direction is detected, and a second count number, which is a count number of pixels in which a second luminance change in a negative direction is detected, in an image output from alight receiving unit at a predetermined frame rate and indicating a luminance change; a coefficient generation unit that generates a coefficient corresponding to a time at which the luminance change is detected; and an integrating unit that integrates a multiplication result of the count number of the pixels and the coefficient. The present technology can be applied to, for example, an event detection sensor or the like.
