Abstract
Systems and techniques are described for generating depth map(s). For instance, a process can include obtaining a frame including a reflected pattern of light generated based on a pattern of light that is based on a primitive including a set of uniquely identifiable features. The process can include determining, using a time-of-flight (ToF) sensor, a first distance measurement associated with a pixel of the frame, and determining a search space within the primitive based on the first distance measurement. The process can include determining, based on searching the search space, a feature of the primitive corresponding to a region around the pixel of the frame. The process can include determining a second distance measurement associated with the pixel of the frame based on determining the feature of the primitive. The process can include generating a depth map based at least in part on the second distance measurement.
