    Abstract: A synchronization method of a first depth sensing apparatus includes: transmitting a first optical signal to measure a distance to an object; receiving the first optical signal reflected by the object; when recognition of the received first optical signal fails, stopping transmission of the first optical signal and generating first synchronization information for synchronization with at least one second depth sensing apparatus; receiving a third optical signal for synchronization with the first depth sensing apparatus, which is transmitted by the at least one second depth sensing apparatus, and decoding the received third optical signal to extract at least one piece of second synchronization information; determining a time point at which and a cycle in which to re-transmit the first optical signal, based on the first synchronization information and the at least one piece of second synchronization information; and re-transmitting the first optical signal at the determined time point and cycle.

    Abstract: A method and device are provided for obtaining a 3D image. The method includes sequentially projecting a plurality of beams to an object, each of the plurality of projected beams corresponding to a respective one of a plurality of sectors included in a pattern; detecting a plurality of beams reflected off of the object corresponding to the plurality of projected beams; identifying time-of-flight (ToF) of each of the plurality of projected beams based on the plurality of detected beams; identifying a distortion of the pattern, which is caused by the object, based on the plurality of detected beams; and generating a depth map for the object based on the distortion of the pattern and the ToF of each of the plurality of projected beams, wherein the plurality of detected beams are commonly used to identify the ToF and the distortion of the pattern.
