Abstract
An image device for generating depth images includes at least two image capturers and a rotating device. When the rotating device rotates the at least two image capturers, multiple images captured by the at least two image capturers are utilized to generate a depth image, wherein a view angle corresponding to the depth image is not less than a view angle of each image capturer of the at least two image capturers.
Claims4
An electronic device for viewing a panoramic color and depth image, comprising:
- a display;
- and
- a processor reading a 360 degree panoramic color image and a 360 degree panoramic depth image, wherein the 360 degree panoramic color image corresponds to the 360 degree panoramic depth image;
- wherein when the electronic device is moved or rotated, the processor further converts a part of the 360 degree panoramic color image corresponding to a view angle corresponding to motion or rotation of the electronic device into a planar color image and a part of the 360 degree panoramic depth image corresponding to the view angle into a planar depth image according to the view angle, combines the planar color image with the planar depth image to generate a planar color and depth image corresponding to the view angle, and makes the display display the planar color image according to the planar color and depth image.
