3-D 360 degrees depth projector
Abstract:
A camera system configured to generate depth information for a local area. The camera system comprises a plurality of depth camera sub-assemblies arranged in a substantially spherical arrangement. Each sub-assembly comprises a projector that projects a structured light pattern onto a portion of the local area, such that the projected light patterns of the plurality of sub-assemblies form a tiled light pattern covering 360 degrees of the local area. Each sub-assembly further comprises at least one camera is configured to capture images of the local area. A controller of the camera system is configured to receive the captured images and to construct a 360 degree depth map of the scene, based upon the structured light patterns projected by the projectors of the plurality captured in the received images.
