A device produces a dolly zoom effect with automatic focal length adjustment. The device uses a camera to capture an initial image including at least a foreground object and a background. The device includes a size tracking circuit to identify the size of the foreground object in the initial image. The device further includes a focal length control circuit. The focal length control circuit calculates an adjusted focal length of the camera to maintain the size of the foreground object in subsequently captured images.

Automatic dolly zoom image processing device

A system produces a dolly zoom effect by utilizing side view information. The system first captures a main image at a main location. The main image includes at least a foreground object of a given size and a background. The system calculates one or more side view locations based on a zoom-in factor to be applied to the background and an estimated size of the foreground object. The system then guides a user to capture one or more side view images at the one or more side view locations. The foreground object of the given size is superimposed onto a zoomed-in background. Then the side view information is used by the system to perform image inpainting.
