Abstract
Techniques for generating 3D images using multi-resolution camera set are described. In one example embodiment, the method includes, disposing a set of multi-resolution cameras including a central camera, having a first resolution, and one or more multiple camera groups, having one or more resolutions that are different from the first resolution, that are positioned substantially surrounding the central camera. Images are then captured using the multi-resolution camera set. A low-resolution depth map is then generated by down scaling the captured higher resolution image to lower resolution image. Captured lower resolution images are then up-scaled. A high-resolution depth map is then generated using the captured image of the central camera, the up-scaled captured images of the one or more multiple camera groups, and the generated low-resolution depth map. The 3D image of the captured image is then generated using the generated high-resolution depth map and the captured images.
