Abstract: Indirect time-of-flight (i-ToF) image sensor pixels, i-ToF image sensors including such pixels, stereo cameras including such image sensors, and sensing methods to obtain i-ToF detection and phase detection information using such image sensors and stereo cameras. An i-ToF image sensor pixel may comprise a plurality of sub-pixels, each sub-pixel including a photodiode, a single microlens covering the plurality of sub-pixels and a read-out circuit for extracting i-ToF phase signals of each sub-pixel individually.

Abstract: Systems having a Wide/Ultra-Wide camera, a folded Tele camera with an optical path folding element and a Tele lens module, a lens actuator for moving the Tele lens module for focusing to object-lens distances between 3.0 cm and 35 cm with an object-to-image magnification between 1:5 and 25:1, and an application processor (AP), wherein the AP is configured to analyze image data from the UW camera to define a Tele capture strategy for a sequence of Macro images with a focal plane slightly shifted from one captured Macro image to another and to generate a new Macro image from this sequence, and wherein the focal plane and a depth of field of the new Macro image can be controlled continuously.

Abstract: Systems and methods for eliminating or mitigating T-effects on Hall sensors. A system may comprise a magnet-coil arrangement for providing a relative movement therebetween to obtain a relative position, a Hall sensor for sensing the relative movement, a temperature sensor located in proximity of the Hall sensor for providing temperature sensing, and a controller having two or more channels coupled to Hall sensor and to the temperature sensor and configured to control the relative movement and to provide, based on the temperature sensing, a temperature correction input to the Hall sensor for compensating a temperature effect on the Hall sensor sensing.

Abstract: Systems, imaging devices and methods for creating background blur in camera panning or motion. Using an imaging device with an image sensor, a method may comprise selecting an object to be tracked in a scene, recording an image or an image stream, and aligning the selected object optically and/or digitally to a same position on the image sensor while the selected object moves relative to the imaging device or relative to the scene, thereby creating a blurred image background and/or foreground relative to the selected object and a sense of panning or motion.
