Abstract
A method for performing light shaping with aid of an adaptive projector and associated apparatus are provided. The method includes: utilizing an image processing circuit to obtain distance information; utilizing the image processing circuit to determine a distance range according to the distance information; utilizing the image processing circuit to perform projection light-shaping type selection to determine at least one selected projection light-shaping type corresponding to the distance range among multiple predetermined projection light-shaping types; utilizing the adaptive projector to perform projection of the at least one selected projection light-shaping type to perform spatial exposure bracketing, for capturing at least one corresponding image with a camera, to allow the image processing circuit to perform at least one detection operation according to the at least one corresponding image to generate at least one detection result, for performing subsequent processing of the hybrid depth detection device.
