Abstract:
Approaches are described for selectively managing imaging elements on a computing device. A portable computing device can include a camera module that can manage the capture and/or processing of image data. The module can include a first imaging element attached to a first surface of a substrate and a second imaging element attached to a second surface of the substrate, the first surface being opposite the second surface. The image module can also include an image signal processor (ISP) or other dedicated imaging processing circuitry attached to or otherwise in connection with the substrate. The circuitry can be shared between the imaging elements, and can be configured to receive a selection of one of the imaging elements and process (e.g., depth pixel correction, etc.) captured image data based on the selected imaging element.
