CAPTURING GATED AND UNGATED LIGHT IN THE SAME FRAME ON THE SAME PHOTOSURFACE

A photosensitive surface of an image sensor, hereafter a photosurface, of a gated 3D camera is controlled to acquire both gated and ungated light in the same frame on different areas of its surface. One image capture area of the photosurface acquires gated light during a gated period while another i...

More Information
Summary:A photosensitive surface of an image sensor, hereafter a photosurface, of a gated 3D camera is controlled to acquire both gated and ungated light in the same frame on different areas of its surface. One image capture area of the photosurface acquires gated light during a gated period while another image capture area is OFF for image data capture purposes. During an ungated period, the other image capture area of the same photosurface captures ungated light as image data. Typically, the gated and ungated periods are interleaved during the same frame period.
