A method for estimating a distance between a first target and a second target in an image is to be implemented using a distance estimation system that includes a processor module. In the method, the processor module is programmed to: generate an image depth map associated with the image; generate first position information associated with a first position which corresponds to the first target in the image, and second position information associated with a second position which corresponds to the second target in the image; and compute an estimate of a distance between the first target and the second target based on at least the image depth map, the first position information, and the second position information.

Method for estimating distance, and system and computer-readable medium for implementing the method

A method is provided to generate a 3D image using a light-field camera that includes a main lens, a micro-lens array, a light sensing component, and an image processing module. The micro-lens array forms a plurality of adjacent micro-images at different positions of the light sensing component. Each micro-image includes multiple image zones corresponding to different viewing angles. For each micro-image, the image processing module obtains image pixel values from the image zones, so as to generate camera images corresponding to different viewing angles. The image processing module combines the camera images to generate the 3D image.

Method of using a light-field camera to generate a three-dimensional image, and light field camera implementing the method

An image depth processing method includes the following steps. A background image and a foreground image in a reference image are obtained according to a depth image corresponding to the reference image. It is noted that the depth value of the background image is larger than the depth value of the foreground image. Meanwhile, the background image is blurred, and then the foreground image and a local image in the blurred background image are blurred. A simulation image is generated according to the background image and the foreground image after blurring the local image and the foreground image.
