Abstract
A method of performing an image autofocus operation using multiple cameras includes performing, at an image processor, a first autofocus operation on a first region of interest in a scene captured by a first camera and determining a second region of interest in the scene captured by a second camera. The second region of interest is determined based on the first region of interest. The method further includes performing a second autofocus operation on the second region of interest. The method also includes fusing a first image of the scene captured by the first camera with a second image of the scene captured by the second camera to generate a fused image. The first image is based on the first autofocus operation and the second image is based on the second autofocus operation.
