IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS, IMAGE PICKUP DEVICE, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, APERTURE CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM

摘要

The technology relates to an image pickup unit, an image pickup device, a picture processing method, a diaphragm control method, and program that are capable of suppressing deterioration in quality of a stereoscopic picture. A parallax detection pixel 230 receives object light by a plurality of photodetectors covered with one microlens, to generate a signal used for detecting parallax. G pixels 227 and 228, an R pixel 226, and a B pixel 229 each receive the object light to generate a signal used for generating a planar picture. A parallax detection section 320 detects parallax based on the signal generated by the parallax detection pixels 230. A 2D picture generation section 310 generates a planar picture based on a signal generated by picture generation pixels. A 3D picture generation section 330 adjusts a position of each object image included in the planar picture, based on the detected parallax, to generate a stereoscopic picture.
