Abstract:
A photo sensor array is divided up into multiple blocks that are operated with different exposure times. A prediction algorithm is used to predict the overall light brightness of each block and determine the exposure time of each block. Each block may also include memory to store the exposure time for the pixels in the block as well as analog-to-digital resolution for the block.
