Abstract

An image system for generating depth maps and color images includes a plurality of image sensors, at least one image processor, and at least one depth map generator. An image processor of the at least one image processor is coupled to at least one image sensor of the plurality of image sensors for generating luminance information represented by a first bit number and at least one color image represented by a second bit number according to at least one image captured by the at least one image sensor, wherein the at least one color image corresponds to the at least one image. A depth map generator of the at least one depth map generator is coupled to the image processor for generating a depth map corresponding to the at least one image according to the luminance information represented by the first bit number.
