Abstract: An apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes: a processor configured to perform operations including the steps of: receiving, from a sensor array of an image sensor, data sensed by the sensor array, the sensed data comprising image data and ambient light information; determining whether the image data matches a predetermined exposure criterion; and in response to the image data not matching the predetermined exposure criterion, obtaining the ambient light information from the sensed data; and selectively configuring a new exposure value for a plurality of imaging pixels in the image sensor to capture new image data according to the obtained ambient light information.

Abstract: A method for testing a 3D camera is provided. The method includes: making a first camera of the 3D camera align with a first picture of a reference picture, wherein, the reference picture includes a second picture, a central point of the first picture and the second picture respectively has a first label and a second label; obtaining an image captured by a second camera of the 3D camera; identifying the first label, the second label, and a central point of the image; calculating an actual angle difference and an actual distance difference according to coordinates of the first label, the second label, and the central point; determining whether the 3D camera is installed appropriately by comparing the actual distance difference with the reference distance difference and the actual angle difference with the reference angle difference respectively.
