  • Patent number: 12033306
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a camera device. The camera device and an electronic apparatus including the same according to an embodiment of the present disclosure include: a color camera; an IR camera; and a processor configured to separate a foreground region and a background region of an IR image from the IR camera, and to filter a color image from the color camera based on the separated foreground or background region, and generate a bokeh image for the color image. Accordingly, by using the IR image from the IR camera, the bokeh image for the color image from the color camera may be simply generated.
