Abstract:
A stereo preview apparatus has an auto-stereoscopic display, an input interface, a motion detection circuit, and a visual transition circuit. The input interface receives at least an input stereo image pair including a left-view image and a right-view image generated from an image capture device. The motion detection circuit evaluates a motion status of the image capture device. The visual transition circuit generates an output stereo image pair based on the input stereo image pair, and outputs the output stereo image pair to the auto-stereoscopic display for stereo preview, wherein the visual transition circuit refers to the evaluated motion status to configure adjustment made to the input stereo image pair when generating the output stereo image pair.

Abstract:
Various examples with respect to method and apparatus for active stereo vision are described. An apparatus may include an electromagnetic (EM) wave emitter, a first sensor and a second sensor. During operation, the EM wave emitter emits EM waves toward a scene, the first sensor captures a first image of the scene in an infrared (IR) spectrum, and the second sensor captures a second image of the scene in a light spectrum. The first image and second image, when processed, may enable active stereo vision.
