Photographing for dual-lens device using photographing environment determined using depth estimation
Huawei Device (Dongguan) Co., Ltd., Dongguan, CN;
HUAWEI DEVICE (DONGGUAN) CO., LTD., Dongguan, CN;
Abstract
A photographing method for a dual-lens device may include acquiring a first image collected at a first moment by a first image sensor and a second image collected at the first moment by a second image sensor; performing scene recognition on the first image and/or the second image, and performing depth estimation on the first image and the second image to determine a photographing environment; and when an instruction for a photographing operation is received, generating a picture using the multi-frame algorithm. When photographing is performed using a multi-frame algorithm, two frames of images can be collected at the same time using a dual-lens device, which can reduce impact caused by a jitter of the device or a motion of a target object, so that ghost detection and an elimination algorithm are not required, thereby reducing a photographing time.
