First Claim
Patent Images
1. An electronic device, comprising:
- a first camera with a first field of view (FOV);
a second camera with a second FOV that is narrower than the first FOV; and
a processor configured to;
capture a first image with the first camera, the first image having a union FOV;
capture a second image with the second camera,determine an overlapping FOV between the first image and the second image;
generate a disparity estimate based on the overlapping FOV;
generate a union FOV disparity estimate; and
merge the union FOV disparity estimate with the overlapping FOV disparity estimate.

Abstract
An electronic device and method are herein disclosed. The electronic device includes a first camera with a first field of view (FOV), a second camera with a second FOV that is narrower than the first FOV, and a processor configured to capture a first image with the first camera, the first image having a union FOV, capture a second image with the second camera, determine an overlapping FOV between the first image and the second image, generate a disparity estimate based on the overlapping FOV, generate a union FOV disparity estimate, and merge the union FOV disparity estimate with the overlapping FOV disparity estimate.
