  • Publication number: 20170337702
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for measuring depth information are provided. In the method, a structured light with a scan pattern is projected by a light projecting device to scan at least one object. Reflected light from the object is detected by a light sensing device, and depth information of each object is calculated according to a deformation of a reflective pattern of the reflected light. Then, images of the object are captured by an image capturing device and used to obtain location information of each object. At least one moving object is found among the objects according to a change of the location information. Finally, at least one of a scan area, a scan frequency, a scan resolution and the scan pattern of the structured light and an order for processing data obtained from scanning is adjusted so as to calculate the depth information of each object.
