Abstract

In exemplary illustrative embodiments, a method of generating a digital image and/or modified depth information may include obtaining, via a first electronic sensor, a plurality of images of a target within a time period; selecting one or more pixels in a first image of the plurality of images; identifying corresponding pixels, that correspond to the one or more selected pixels, in one or more other images of the plurality of images, the one or more selected pixels and the corresponding pixels defining sets of reference pixels; identifying two or more images of the plurality of images having respective sets of reference pixels with optimal disparity; generating modified depth information; and/or generating a final digital image via the plurality of images and the modified depth information.
