Apparatuses and computer-implemented methods for middle frame image processing

Abstract

Embodiments described herein provide a middle frame image processing schema in a multi-sensor environment, for example improve image processing throughput and snappiness by processing middle frame image data objects of a middle frame image size that is shared amongst a plurality of image sensors. An example apparatus includes a plurality of image sensors, each configured to capture a full frame image data object and output a middle frame image data object. The apparatus further includes an image frame multiplexer communicable with each of the plurality of image sensors, and configured to receive a plurality of middle frame image data objects, and output a selected middle frame image data object from the plurality of middle frame image data objects. The apparatus further includes a processor communicable with the image frame multiplexer, and configured to receive the selected middle frame image data object, and process the selected middle frame image data object.
