Abstract
A system and method for identifying a region of interest in a digital image. A first and second images of a scene may be obtained from a respective first and second points of view. Following an acquisition of a first image from a first point of view, a subsequent image may be automatically acquired upon determining that a second view point is achieved. Based on two or more images of a scene, a background object may be removed from an image to produce an image that only includes a foreground object or a region of interest.
