Systems and methods for low compute high-resolution depth map generation using low-resolution cameras

A system for facilitating low compute depth map generation to provide parallax-corrected images, the system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more hardware storage devices storing instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to configure the system to facilitate low compute depth map generation to provide parallax-corrected images by configuring the system to:
• obtain a first image of an environment;
• obtain a second image comprising texture information for the environment, the second image comprising a higher image resolution than the first image;
• generate a downsampled second image, wherein the downsampled second image comprises a same image resolution as the first image;
• generate a depth map of the environment by performing stereo matching on the downsampled second image and the first image;
• and
• generate an upsampled depth map based on the depth map and the texture information of the second image.

A method for facilitating low compute depth map generation to provide parallax-corrected images, the method comprising:

• obtaining a first image of an environment;
• obtaining a second image of the environment, the second image capturing the environment in temporal synchronization with the first image, the second image comprising a higher image resolution than the first image;
• generating an upsampled first image, wherein the upsampled first image comprises a same image resolution as the second image;
• and
• generating a depth map of the environment by performing stereo matching on the upsampled first image and the second image.
