Abstract
An image depth generation device and method thereof is disclosed in the present invention. The device includes at least a processing circuit and at least a calculator. The processing circuit receives an input image and determines a visual distance of a pixel Pi according to a color of the pixel in the input image and at least a reference value to generate a depth offset of each pixel. The calculator is coupled to the processing circuit and uses the depth offset of each pixel and a predetermined depth to generate an output depth value of each pixel in the input image.
