Pixel circuit and method of operating the same in an always-on mode
Abstract:
An embodiment method of operating an imaging device including a sensor array including a plurality of pixels, includes: capturing a first low-spatial resolution frame using a subset of the plurality of pixels of the sensor array; generating, using a processor coupled to the sensor array, a first depth map using raw pixel values of the first low-spatial resolution frame; capturing a second low-spatial resolution frame using the subset of the plurality of pixels of the sensor array; generating, using the processor, a second depth map using raw pixel values of the second low-spatial resolution frame; and determining whether an object has moved in a field of view of the imaging device based on a comparison of the first depth map to the second depth map.
