Abstract:
An imaging device includes at least a first group of pixels. A driver block is configured to generate at least two shutter signals, each having on-phases periodically alternating with off-phases. The shutter signals might not be in phase. The imaging device may have an optical shutter that is partitioned in two or more parts, or a set of two or more optical shutters. The shutter parts, or the shutters, may receive the shutter signals, and accordingly open and close. A design of the driver block requires reduced power, which is highly desirable for mobile applications. Moreover, 3D imaging may be implemented that uses various time-of-flight configurations.

Claim (Index 62):
The imaging device of  claim 58 , further comprising:\n a light driver within the casing, wherein the light driver generates a light clock signal responsive to the first shutter signal; and a light source on the casing, wherein the light source transmits, responsive to the light clock signal, modulated light towards an object outside the casing, and wherein the first group of pixels images reflections of the modulated light from the object.
