The U.S. Patent and Trademark office on Tuesday revealed a newly-granted Apple patent that details a method for capturing stereoscopic image data in software, a possible precursor to a depth-enabled photography mode for the company's mobile devices.
PSI (producing stereoscopic image) a system in which a computer can identify two suitable digital photographs from a range of options, then combine those photographs into a single stereoscopic picture. This is adding depth to the image. This is particularly challenging,for photographers due to the need to manually ensure that the chosen photographs are properly matched. Most stereoscopic cameras can be use the effect by using two offset lenses in a design that mimics the way a person would view the scene. Where previous Apple patents covered the integration of multiple cameras into a single device, this new patent would allow stereoscopic images to be captured from only a single camera, with the work of selecting and aligning suitable photographs performed by the device, rather than the photographer.
