Depth from focus
Abstract
A new method for extracting depth information from 2-dimensional images is propsed. The depth structure of a scene is computed using measurements of the degree of blur in an image which is only in parts sharply focused. Preliminary tests suggest that the method is surprisingly powerful and may have interesting applications.
