Abstract

Arrangements (e.g., apparatus, system, method, article of manufacture) for reconstructing a depth image of a scene. Some embodiments include: a processor; and a non-transitory computer readable medium to store a set of instructions for execution by the processor, the set of instructions to cause the processor to perform various operations. Operations include: collecting multiple data sets for a code-modulated light pulse reflected from an object in a scene, with each data set associated with a direction in a set of directions for the reflected code-modulated light pulse; assigning a fitness value to each data set based on one or more parameters of a model; and reconstructing a depth image providing a depth at each direction based on a corresponding data set and fitness value, the depth to correspond with a round-trip delay time of the code-modulated light pulse.
