Zusammenfassung:A vision sensor including a plurality of pixels configured to sense intensity of incident light, and to output request signals representing an occurrence status of an event; and an event detection circuit configured to generate event data including information about a pixel at which the event occurs, based on the request signals, wherein each pixel of the plurality of pixels includes: a photoelectric conversion device configured to generate a current corresponding to the incident light; a current-to-voltage converter configured to generate a voltage corresponding to the current; an amplifier configured to amplify a variation amount of the generated voltage to generate an output voltage; an event storage configured to generate an event signal corresponding to a comparison between the output voltage and a threshold voltage, and to hold the event signal using cross-coupled transistors; and an output logic configured to output a request signal based on the event signal.
