Abstract
Various embodiments are directed to a device including an infrared phase detection autofocus (PDAF) sensor. The device may include a projector configured to transmit a source light onto a scene. The device may include the infrared PDAF sensor configured to receive reflections of the source light off of objects within the scene. The infrared PDAF sensor may include a first set of pixels including focus pixels. The device may include a processor coupled to the infrared PDAF sensor and a memory. The processor may be configured to generate first depth data based on the received reflections of the source light. The processor may be configured to generate second depth data based on signals generated from corresponding pairs of the focus pixels. The processor may be configured to generate combined depth data based on the first depth data and the second depth data.
