Abstract
An image processing method for reducing distortion of a depth image may include: obtaining a plurality of original images based on light beams which are emitted to and reflected from a subject; determining original depth values of original depth images obtained from the plurality of original images, based on phase delays of the light beams, the reflected light beams comprising multi-reflective light beams that distort the original depth values; determining imaginary intensities of the multi-reflective light beams with respective to each phase of the multi-reflective light beams, based on regions having intensities greater than a predetermined intensity in the original depth images; correcting the original depth values of the original depth images, based on the imaginary intensities of the multi-reflective light beams; and generating corrected depth images based on the corrected original depth values.
