  • Patent number: 10212412
    Abstract: A method of increasing a photographing speed of a photographing device which capture an image through a combination of two or more photographing devices and generate and provide an image by using the captured image, thereby increasing a photographing speed. An RGB image obtaining device and a depth image obtaining device alternately perform photographing to obtain an image. Also, a second depth image and a second RGB image respectively corresponding to a first RGB image and a first depth image which are alternately obtained by performing alternate photographing are synthesized and output, thereby actually increasing a photographing speed by twice.
