Abstract:
A depth-mapping method comprises exposing first and second detectors oriented along different optical axes to light dispersed from a scene, and furnishing an output responsive to a depth coordinate of a locus of the scene. The output increases with an increasing first amount of light received by the first detector during a first period, and decreases with an increasing second amount of light received by the second detector during a second period different than the first.
