Abstract
Embodiments are disclosed that relate to controlling a depth camera. In one example, a method comprises emitting light from an illumination source toward a scene through an optical window, selectively routing a at least a portion of the light emitted from the illumination source to an image sensor such that the portion of the light is not transmitted through the optical window, receiving an output signal generated by the image sensor based on light reflected by the scene, the output signal including at least one depth value of the scene, and adjusting the output signal based on the selectively routed portion of the light.
