Image signal processing in multi-camera system

Abstract:

A processor generates a depth map from two images, including a high-dynamic range (HDR) image. The processor receives, from a first image sensor, one or more first images, wherein the one or more first images have a first field-of-view (FOV) and a first resolution, and receives, from a second image sensor, one or more second images, wherein the one or more second images have a second FOV and a second resolution. The processor generates a first HDR image from the one or more first images, and performs tone alignment on the one or more second images based on the first HDR image to produce a second HDR image. The processor generates a depth map using the first HDR image and the second HDR image. The processor may use the depth map to apply a bokeh effect to the first HDR image.
