Abstract

The invention provides an image output method, an image sensor and application thereof. The image output method comprises the following steps: the input circuit performs first photoelectric conversion on incident light and generates corresponding light current in an EVS mode working period, and performs second photoelectric conversion on the incident light and generates corresponding photoelectric charge in an APS mode working period; the EVS circuit outputs a corresponding event signal according to the change rate of the first voltage corresponding to the light current in the first photoelectric conversion process; the APS circuit outputs a corresponding gray-scale signal according to a second voltage corresponding to the photoelectric charge in the process that the first photoelectric conversion continues to be carried out; the control circuit outputs a corresponding EVS image according to the event signal and outputs a corresponding APS image according to the gray-scale signal; wherein the working period of the single APS mode is between the working periods of the adjacent EVS modes. According to the invention, the size of the image sensor can be effectively reduced, and multiple frames of EVS images can be output while one frame of APS image is output.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of photosensitive elements, in particular to an image output method, an image sensor and applications thereof. Background technique [0002] In related technologies, the scheme for the fusion of APS (Active Pixel Sensor, active pixel sensor) and EVS (Event-basedVisionSensor, event-based visual sensor) is: copy the photocurrent generated by the photodiode in EVS to form APS, so as to realize EVS Integration with APS. However, this scheme easily introduces a large amount of noise in the process of photocurrent replication, which seriously affects the imaging quality of APS; moreover, in the process of outputting images, it is also impossible to simultaneously output APS images and EVS images from a single pixel. In addition, both APS and EVS require a photoelectric conversion device for detecting light, and the photoelectric conversion device occupies most of the space of the image sensor, thereby g...
