DISPOSITIF D'IMAGERIE À SEMI-CONDUCTEURS ET PROCÉDÉ DE COMMANDE D'UN DISPOSITIF D'IMAGERIE À SEMI-CONDUCTEURS

摘要

[Object] To provide a solid state imaging device that makes it possible to quickly set optimal imaging conditions for the iris authentication.[Solution] Provided is a solid state imaging device including: a pixel array in which pixels are disposed on a matrix; an iris authenticator that extracts iris information to be used in an iris authentication process, from image data obtained from the pixel array through photoelectric conversion; and an imaging condition controller that performs control to set an imaging condition in obtaining the image data for the iris authentication process, by using information obtained in a process of extracting the iris information.
