Abstract
This application describes method and apparatus for LED Flicker mitigation (LFM) using spatially multiplexed image sensors with linear exposure configuration and nonlinear gain configuration. An example spatially multiplexed image sensor includes a plurality of pixels, each pixel being divided into M×N sub-pixels, each of the M×N sub-pixels being configured with an exposure time and an analog gain. Within each of the plurality of pixels: the M×N sub-pixels are configured with different exposure times; a first sub-pixel of the M×N sub-pixels is configured with a first exposure time and a first analog gain, and a second sub-pixel of the M×N sub-pixels is configured with a second exposure time and a second analog gain, wherein the first exposure time is longer than the second exposure time, and the first analog gain is smaller than the second analog gain.
