Patent Images
1. An image pickup apparatus, comprising:
- a readout area setter configured to set a readout area from which an image signal is read out from the image sensor to maintain shapes of respective interest areas of a plurality of interest areas within an image pickup area of an image sensor in an image formed by an image signal to be output;
a sensor readout controller configured to control readout of a pixel signal of the readout area from the image sensor; and
an output signal generator configured to generate the image signal to be output based on the pixel signal read out by the sensor readout controller.

Abstract
An image pickup apparatus includes: an interest area setter configured to input a signal in order to set plurality of interest areas within an image pickup area of an image sensor; a readout area setter configured to set a readout area to read out an image signal from the image sensor so as to maintain shapes of the respective interest areas in an image formed by an image signal to be output; a sensor readout controller configured to control readout of a pixel signal of the readout area from the image sensor; and an output signal generator configured to generate the image signal to be output based on the pixel signal read out by the sensor readout controller.
