Abstract

A method and an apparatus for obtaining a depth image by using a time-of-flight sensor may generate a depth image based on a plurality of images in which a motion blur area caused by a movement of an object was corrected. In this case, since the motion blur area is corrected after an initial phase difference of emitted light is compensated, an accuracy of the depth image may be enhanced.
