Abstract
In general, techniques are described that facilitate processing of color image data using both a mono image data and a color image data. A device comprising a monochrome camera, a color camera, and a processor may be configured to perform the techniques. The monochrome camera may capture monochrome image data of a scene. The color camera may capture color image data of the scene. A processor may determine a parallax value indicative of a level of parallax between the monochrome image data and the color image data and determine that the parallax is greater than the parallax threshold. The processor may further combine, in response to the determination that the parallax is greater than the parallax threshold, a luma component of the color image data with a luma component of the monochrome image data to generate a luma component of enhanced color image data.
