  • Publication number: 20210231812
    Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to a device which has a circuitry that obtains image data of a scene being representative of a time of flight measurement of light reflected from the scene, wherein the image data is based on a pattern of light being illuminated on the scene, wherein the pattern of light includes high intensity light areas and low intensity light areas; obtains, based on the image data, first image data being representative of the high intensity light areas; obtains, based on the image data, second image data being representative of the low intensity light areas; estimates direct component image data based on the first image data and the second image data; and generates a depth map of the scene based on the direct component image data and the second image data.
