1. A method for image generation based on a dual camera module, the dual camera module comprising a first camera and a second camera, the method comprising:
- generating a first image by the first camera;
generating a second image by the second camera,wherein the first camera is a camera with a low resolution and a large single pixel size, and the second camera is a camera with a high resolution and a small single pixel size; and
synthesizing the first image and the second image to generate a third image, wherein the third image includes a third color signal dominated by a first color signal associated with the first image, wherein the third image includes a third luminance signal dominated by a second luminance signal associated with the second image,and whereinsynthesizing the first image and the second image to generate the third image comprises;
extracting a first color signal and the first luminance signal from the first image;
extracting a second color signal and the second luminance signal from the second image;
synthesizing the first color signal and the second color signal to obtain the third color signal;
synthesizing the first luminance signal and the second luminance signal to obtain the third luminance signal; and
synthesizing the third color signal and the third luminance signal to generate the third image.

Abstract
Provided is image generation based on a dual camera module. The dual camera module comprises a first camera lens of a large single-pixel size and a second camera lens of a high resolution. The first camera lens generates a first image. The second camera lens generates a second image. The first image and the second image are synthesized to generate a third image. Correspondingly, also provided is a dual camera module. With the dual camera module, by combining the advantages of the two camera lens, color noise and luminance noise of an image are reduced.
