Abstract
A device includes an image sensor configured to generate a first signal corresponding to an image having a first resolution in a first mode, a second signal corresponding to an image having a second resolution higher than the first resolution in a second mode. The image sensor is configured to generate frame information regarding a resolution, the first mode and the second mode respectively determined based on a mode signal. The device further includes a channel allocator configured to allocate the first signal and the second signal to different channels, of a plurality of channels, based on the frame information; and an image signal processor (ISP) comprising the plurality of channels, a first channel configured to process the first signal and a second channel configured to process the second signal. The ISP is configured to post-process image data processed by the plurality of channels.
