Abstract

Provided are a solid-state imaging device capable of dynamically changing a measurable range of acceleration to accurately measure acceleration, and a method of controlling the solid-state imaging device. A solid-state imaging device according to the present disclosure is a solid-state imaging device disposed on a mobile body, the solid-state imaging device including: an imaging section that photoelectrically converts incident light into a charge amount according to a light amount and images a target object; a motion detecting section that calculates a speed of the target object on the basis of a plurality of images imaged by the imaging section; and an inertial measurement section that detects an acceleration or an angular velocity of the mobile body and changes a measurable range of the acceleration or the angular velocity of the mobile body according to the speed of the target object.
