Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for generating three-dimensional (3D) images of a scene. According to an aspect, a method includes capturing a real-time image and a first still image of a scene. Further, the method includes displaying the real-time image of the scene on a display. The method also includes determining one or more properties of the captured images. The method also includes calculating an offset in a real-time display of the scene to indicate a target camera positional offset with respect to the first still image. Further, the method includes determining that a capture device is in a position of the target camera positional offset. The method also includes capturing a second still image. Further, the method includes correcting the captured first and second still images. The method also includes generating the three-dimensional image based on the corrected first and second still images.
