Abstract
An imaging device includes an image sensing device and an image signal processor. The imaging sensing device includes a pixel array of sensing pixels comprising a first pixel for sensing incident light and having a first dynamic range and a second pixel for sensing incident light and having a second dynamic range, the pixel array of sensing pixels structured to have a ratio of a number of the first pixels to all sensing pixels to be higher than a ratio of a number of second pixels to all sensing pixels. The image signal processor is configured to receive and process pixel data from the image sensing device to generate a high dynamic range (HDR) image corresponding to a larger dynamic range than the first dynamic range or the second dynamic range, based on pixel data of the first pixels and pixel data of the second pixels in the pixel array.
