Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided to automatically adjust the position of image sensors, and generate a multi-view image based on image data captured from the image sensors. For example, an image capture device includes a housing comprising a first housing portion and a second housing portion, with a first sensor coupled to the first housing portion, and a second sensor coupled to the second housing portion. A coupling device, such as a hinge, couples the first housing portion to the second housing portion. The image capture device obtains image data from the first sensor and the second sensor, and determines an object depth based on the obtained image data. The image capture device outputs an adjusted angle based on the object depth, and obtains additional image data from the first and second sensors. The image capture device generates the multi-view image based on the additional image data.
