  • Publication number: 20240340540
    Abstract: There is provided an imaging device and an imaging method that can perform imaging while appropriately adjusting each of exposure of SDR video and exposure of HDR video. The imaging device includes: an SDR signal processing unit configured to generate SDR video on the basis of a video signal output from an imaging element; an HDR signal processing unit configured to generate HDR video on the basis of the video signal; an SDR/HDR exposure adjusting unit configured to adjust each of exposure of the SDR video and exposure of the HDR video; an SDR exposure adjusting unit configured to adjust only the exposure of the SDR video; an SDR recording unit on which the SDR video is recorded; an HDR recording unit on which the HDR video is recorded; and a display unit configured to display SDR exposure information about the SDR video and HDR exposure information about the HDR video together with the SDR video and the HDR video.

  • Patent number: 9723731
    Abstract: A vehicular electronic device has a semiconductor package and a multilayer wiring board. An electrode pad of the multilayer wiring board, to which a signal terminal of the semiconductor package is soldered, has a wiring pattern in an inner layer of the multilayer wiring board. A solder resist is applied and spaced from a periphery of the electrode pad to the exterior. The signal terminal is soldered to the electrode pad to cover an upper surface and an upper end of a side surface of the electrode pad. As a result, a crack is less likely to occur in solder connected to the signal terminal. Therefore, the signal terminal can be electrically connected with high reliability even when the signal terminal is provided in the semiconductor package with a small number.

  • Patent number: 8947560
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus generates a main image as an image satisfying a main composition condition indicating a condition regarding a predetermined composition. The image processing apparatus includes: a condition determining unit that determines whether a captured image obtained through imaging of an imaging unit satisfies a preliminary composition condition which is based on the main composition condition; a processing unit that executes a process of obtaining a preliminary image as an image satisfying the preliminary composition condition in accordance with the determination result of the condition determining unit; and an image processing unit that generates the main image by processing the preliminary image obtained through the process based on the main composition condition.
