Abstract:
The disclosure describes the use of image sensors in a variety of different imaging applications. In some implementations, the pixels of an image sensor may be configured (e.g., programmed) with one or more analog filters to sense a variety of things, including, for example: average intensity and color (like a standard camera), 3D depth (like a time of flight or structured light camera), changes and/or motion in an image (like an event based camera), spectral reflectance (like a spectroscopy camera), and many other features of an imaged scene or object. In alternative implementations, digital filtering may be applied to the output of an image sensor to realize one of these applications.

Claim (Index 23):
The method of  claim 16 , comprising:\n generating a first modulated optical signal at the light source, the first modulated optical signal having a first waveband and carrying a first modulation code; generating a second modulated optical signal at the first light, the second modulated optical signal having a second waveband and carrying a second modulation code; and configuring the filter circuit of each of the plurality of pixels to detect light carrying the first modulation code or light carrying the second modulation code.
