Abstract

An image processing method is provided. The image sensor is controlled to output the merged image. The depth-of-field area is identified based on the merged image. The image sensor is controlled to output the color-block image. A first part of the color-block image within the depth-of-field area is converted into a first simulation image using a first interpolation algorithm. The second part of the color-block image outside the depth-of-field area is converted into a second simulation image using a second interpolation algorithm. The first simulation image and the second simulation image are merged to generate a simulation image corresponding to the color-block image.
