Abstract
In one implementation, a camera rig comprises: a first array of image sensors arranged in a planar configuration, wherein the first array of image sensors is provided to capture a first image stream from a first perspective of a physical environment; a second array of image sensors arranged in a non-planar configuration, wherein the second array of image sensors is provided to capture a second image stream from a second perspective of the physical environment different from the first perspective; a buffer provided to store the first and second image streams; and an image processing engine provided to generate a 3D reconstruction of the physical environment based on the first and second image streams.
