Image processing apparatus and method

摘要

There are provided an apparatus and a method for processing an image. The image processing apparatus includes a light source that beams light toward a subject, a first camera that is spaced apart from the light source by more than a predetermined distance and senses light reflected from the subject, and a calculation unit that generates depth information based on reflected light sensed by the first camera, and corrects distortion of the depth information based on at least one of an angle of view of the first camera, a distance between the light source and the first camera, and a distance between the light source and the subject. In a configuration in which the camera generating the depth information and the light source should be spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance, distorted information caused by a distance difference between the light source and the camera is corrected so that precise depth information can be generated regardless of the positions of the light source and the camera.
