Abstract
A method includes obtaining, using first and second image sensors of an electronic device, first and second images, respectively, of a scene. The method also includes obtaining, using an image depth sensor of the electronic device, a third image and a first depth map of the scene, the first depth map having a resolution lower than a resolution of the first and second images. The method further includes undistorting the first and second images using the third image and the first depth map. The method also includes rectifying the first and second images using the third image and the first depth map. The method further includes generating a disparity map using the first and second images that have been undistorted and rectified. In addition, the method includes generating a second depth map using the disparity map and the first depth map, where the second depth map has a resolution that is higher than the resolution of the first depth map.
