METHOD FOR GENERATING DEPTH INFORMATION AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE SUPPORTING THE SAME
First Claim
1. An electronic device comprising:
- a first camera disposed on one surface of the electronic device;
a second camera disposed on the one surface and spaced apart from the first camera by a specified interval; and
at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is configured to;
obtain a first image of one or more external objects using the first camera,obtain a second image of the one or more external objects using the second camera,identify a specified object in which pieces of depth information are generated, from among the one or more external objects included in the first image and the second image, based on phase difference comparison between the first image and the second image,select depth information about the specified object among the pieces of depth information based on a degree of spreading of a point corresponding to the specified object included in at least one of the first image and the second image, andgenerate depth information about the one or more external objects including the specified object using the selected depth information.

Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a first camera, a second camera spaced apart from the first camera, and a processor. The processor is configured to obtain a first image of external objects using the first camera, obtain a second image of the external objects using the second camera, identify a specified object in which pieces of depth information are generated from among the external objects included in the first image and the second image based on phase difference comparison between the first image and the second image, then select depth information about the specified object among the pieces of depth information based on a degree of spreading of a point corresponding to the specified object included in at least one of the first image and the second image, and generate depth information about the external objects including the specified object using the selected depth information.

19. A depth information generating method of an electronic device, the depth information generating method comprising:
-
obtaining a first image and a second image of one or more external objects using at least one camera, wherein the first image and the second image have at least phase difference of the one or more external objects; identifying a specified object in which pieces of depth information are generated, from among the one or more external objects included in the first image and the second image, based on phase difference comparison between the first image and the second image; selecting depth information about the specified object among the pieces of depth information based on a degree of spreading of a point corresponding to the specified object included in at least one image of the first image and the second image; and generating depth information about the one or more external objects including the specified object using the selected depth information. - View Dependent Claims (20)
