Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for extracting depth information for an image by identifying a point of interest appearing in at least two images, calculating depth information for the point of interest by evaluating positions of the point of interest within the images with a change in position of the portable device, defining an image region based on a shared characteristic and assigning the depth information calculated for the point of interest to the defined region.
