Abstract
To satisfactorily transmit uncompressed RAW data between devices. A transmission unit transmits uncompressed RAW data to an external device via an HDMI transmission path. For example, the uncompressed RAW data is uncompressed RAW data in a Bayer layout. Furthermore, for example, the bit depth of each pixel of the uncompressed RAW data is 16 bits, and the transmission unit transmits the uncompressed RAW data using the YC 12 bit transfer mode. For example, the transmission unit transmits metadata related to the uncompressed RAW data together with the uncompressed RAW data.
