Abstract :
3D cameras are expensive to purchase for a common user. The cost can be reduced by using passive depth estimation techniques. This paper introduces a fast and robust method for depth estimation from image focus. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and the efficiency of the proposed method.
