    Abstract: To downsize an imaging element formed by stacking a plurality of semiconductor substrates. The imaging element includes pixels, a pixel circuit, an isolating section, a buried electrode, and a connecting location. Each of the pixels includes: a photoelectric conversion section on the first semiconductor substrate; a charge holding section that holds a charge generated by the photoelectric conversion section; and a charge transfer section. The pixel circuit generates an image signal on the basis of charges disposed and held on a second semiconductor substrate stacked on the front surface side of the first semiconductor substrate. The isolating section is disposed at a boundary of the pixels. The buried electrode is disposed at the boundary of the pixel overlapping the isolating section, so as to be connected to the first semiconductor substrate.

  • Patent number: 11479240
    Abstract: A collision avoidance assist apparatus starts an autonomous steering control to autonomously steer and turn an own vehicle to orient the own vehicle in a laterally extending direction of an obstacle to avoid a collision of the own vehicle with the obstacle when the own vehicle potentially collides with the obstacle. The apparatus sets a first condition as a control termination condition used to determine whether to terminate the autonomous steering control, based on a laterally extending direction of the obstacle relative to the own vehicle when starting the autonomous steering control. The apparatus terminates the autonomous steering control when the obstacle is tracked, and a second condition different from the first condition becomes satisfied. The apparatus terminates the autonomous steering control when the obstacle is not tracked, and the first condition becomes satisfied.

  • Patent number: 10688950
    Abstract: When an object detected by a sensor (20L, 20R) is not an unnecessary object and the object's collision probability index satisfies the predetermined condition, a pre-collision control ECU 10 performs a pre-collision control to prepare for a collision between an own vehicle and this object. The pre-collision control ECU determines that the object is the unnecessary object, when an initially detected location which is a location of the object in relation to the own vehicle when the sensor initially detected the object is in an unnecessary object area NA, and a velocity index value which represents a degree of a velocity change of an initial detected object whose the initially detected location is in the unnecessary object area does not fall within a predetermined range.
