Zusammenfassung: | One example hybrid image sensor with multimode shutters includes a plurality of pixel arrays, each array of pixels comprising a plurality of pixels, each pixel comprising a light-sensing element configured to generate and store a charge in response to incoming light; each pixel array comprising: a charge storage device configured to receive charge from each of the light-sensing elements of the pixel array; a first plurality of switches, each switch of the first plurality of switches connected between a respective pixel of the pixel array and the charge storage device; a second plurality of switches, the second plurality of switches comprising a high-resolution selection switch and a low-resolution selection switch, each of the high-resolution selection switch and the low-resolution selection switch connected in parallel to an output of the charge storage device; a plurality of pixel output lines, each pixel output line configured to output signals representative of pixel values corresponding to one or more pixel arrays coupled to the respective pixel output line. |
