All-in-Focus Imaging Images focused at different distances (focal stack)
What is our work about? • The capture process for focal stacks • For fusion, we use existing techniques, but we do it on-camera • Our scenario, typical in camera phones and low-end consumer cameras • Fixed lens aperture • Handheld camera • Limited memory and processing power
Our Method: Generalized Autofocus depth • Contribution: autofocus for focal stacks • Find the minimal set of required images to generate an all-in-focus composite • The choice of this set depends on the scene • Why is minimizing the number of images important? • Faster capture • Less sensitive to motion • Requires less memory and processing power
Approach 1) Lens sweep from near focus to far focus • capture metering stack of low-resolution images 2) Analyze sharpness 3) Plane-sweep algorithm to determine the minimal set of required images, runs in linear time 4) Recapture minimal set in high resolution 5) Perform all-in-focus fusion • Implementation • Nokia N900 smartphone + Frankencamera + enblend
