Abstract: The present technology relates to a solid-state imaging device, method for driving the same, and electronic apparatus capable of avoiding an occurrence of a blackout in low-speed read-out. The solid-state imaging device includes a pixel array unit in which a plurality of pixels is two-dimensionally arranged in a matrix, and a control unit that exposes all pixels of the pixel array unit at a same exposure timing and performs thinned read-out 2(N?1) times in which all the pixels are thinned to 1/N, so as to read electric charge in all the pixels of the pixel array unit, the electric charge being generated at the same exposure timing. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a solid-state imaging device, or the like, incorporated in an imaging device.

Abstract: An imaging device and method with improved white balance control are disclosed. An image of an object is captured by an imaging element that includes a plurality of pixel output units that receives incident light that is incident without passing through either of an imaging lens and a pinhole. Each pixel output unit outputs one detection signal indicating an output pixel value modulated by an incident angle of the incident light, and on the basis of a detection signal acquired by the image capturing and acquired in the pixel output units, a white balance coefficient that is used for correcting a white balance of a restored image restored from the detection signal is set. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, an imaging element, an imaging device, an image processing device, an electronic device, a system, or the like.

Abstract: An imaging control apparatus of the present disclosure includes a controller that performs a readout operation on a plurality of pixels in an imaging device, and performs control on a basis of a moving object detection result to cause a time length of the readout operation on a first pixel to differ from a time length of the readout operation on a second pixel, the first pixel corresponding to a detection region where a moving object has been detected, and the second pixel corresponding to a region other than the detection region.

Abstract: When a first module and a second module of a plurality of modules 110 to 150 perform authentication processing through short range communication, the first module detects remaining capacity of its own battery 101. When the remaining capacity surpasses a predetermined level, electric power for use in performing authentication operation is supplied to the second module. The plurality of modules, perform authentication processing through short range communication as mentioned above. In addition, individual function units of the respective modules are activated, whereby one function is implemented as a whole. Such a portable device can be made operable on electrical power of a battery for a long hour without impairing convenience of the device.

Abstract: A memory control device controls data accesses to a memory which is composed of multiple banks and is switched between a normal mode for refreshing all banks and a power-saving mode for refreshing a bank. The memory control device includes: a setting information storage unit for storing a boundary address between memory areas to be and not to be refreshed in the power-saving mode; type information storage unit for receiving, from a CPU, and temporarily storing data information indicating whether data will be used in the power-saving mode; and an address converting unit for receiving a data access request from the CPU and converting, with reference to the boundary address, the address of requested data to an address inside or outside the refresh area depending of whether the data information indicates the data will or will not be used in the power-saving mode.
