MULTI-APERTURE CAMERA SYSTEM HAVING AUTO FOCUSING FUNCTION AND/OR DEPTH ESTIMATION FUNCTION

摘要

A multi-aperture camera system having an auto focusing function comprises: multiple apertures; an image sensor that creates multiple images by processing light signals introduced through the multiple apertures, respectively; and an auto focusing unit that determines a distance by which the image sensor moves relative to the multiple apertures by using the multiple images for auto focusing, wherein at least one of the multiple apertures has a central position that is misaligned with those of the remaining apertures other than the at least one aperture.
