Abstract
A method of operating a digital camera, includes providing a digital camera, the digital camera including a capture lens, an image sensor, a projector and a processor; using the projector to illuminate one or more objects with a sequence of patterns; and capturing a first sequence of digital images of the illuminated objects including the reflected patterns that have depth information. The method further includes using the processor to analyze the first sequence of digital images including the depth information to construct a second, 3D digital image of the objects; capturing a second 2D digital image of the objects and the remainder of the scene without the reflected patterns, and using the processor to combine the 2D and 3D digital images to produce a modified digital image of the illuminated objects and the remainder of the scene.
