Solid state imaging device, imaging device, and electronic device for control of color and luminance resolutions
The present technology relates to a solid state imaging device, an imaging device, and an electronic device capable of improving color resolution and luminance resolution, and reducing a false color. White W as a luminance main component is arranged in a checkered pattern. A unit of two green G pixels are arranged in each of rows and columns in a range of 8 pixels×8 pixels to increase uniformity of green G and thereby improve resolution of green G. Moreover, rows and columns containing blue B are separated from rows and columns containing red R to improve resolution. Furthermore, white W, blue B, and red R are arranged to surround isolated point pixels corresponding to lost pixels of white W, blue B, and red R for easy interpolation.
