Abstract
An image capturing apparatus is provided, including: a first camera module and a second camera module configured to capture an image of a same subject; and a controller configured to map a second image obtained from the second camera module to a first image obtained from the first camera module, and to synthesize a third image of the subject using the first image and the mapped second image, wherein an image sensor included in the first camera module has a first pixel structure in which a pixel has a square shape, and an image sensor included in the second camera module has a second pixel structure that is different from the first pixel structure.
Claims13
An image capturing apparatus comprising:
- a first camera comprising a first image sensor and a second camera comprising a second image sensor, the first and second cameras configured to capture an image of a same subject;
- and
- a controller configured to synthesize a third image of the subject using a first image obtained from the first camera and a second image obtained from the second camera,
- wherein the first image sensor included in the first camera has a first pixel structure in which each pixel has a square shape, and the second image sensor included in the second camera has a second pixel structure that is different from the first pixel structure.
A method of operating an image capturing apparatus, comprising:
- obtaining a first image of a subject from a first camera and a second image of the subject from a second camera;
- and
- synthesizing a third image of the subject using the first image and the second image,
- wherein an image sensor included in the first camera has a first pixel structure in which a pixel has a square shape, and an image sensor included in the second camera has a second pixel structure that is different from the first pixel structure.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having embodied thereon a program which, when executed, causes an image capturing apparatus to perform operations comprising:
- obtaining a first image of a subject from a first camera and a second image of the subject from a second camera;
- and
- synthesizing a third image of the subject using the first image and the second image,
- wherein an image sensor included in the first camera has a first pixel structure in which a pixel has a square shape, and an image sensor included in the second camera has a second pixel structure that is different from the first pixel structure.
