Abstract:
A method and a system including at least three image capturing devices for generating depth information are proposed. Multiple depth maps associated with a specific scene are obtained, where each of the depth maps corresponds to a different group of the image capturing devices and a different estimated region of the specific scene. For each pixel corresponding to the specific scene, whether the pixel is within a joint overlapping region of its estimated region is determined. If no, the depth information of the pixel is set according to its depth value in the depth map corresponding to a non-joint overlapping region of its estimated region. If yes, the depth information of the pixel is set according to its depth values in the depth maps corresponding to the joint overlapping region within its estimated region. An integrated depth map is generated by using the depth information of all the pixels.
