Abstract

See full text

Images captured at short distances, such as “selfies,” can be improved by addressing magnification and perspective effects present in the images. Distance information, such as a three-dimensional depth map, can be determined for an object using stereoscopic imaging or another distance measuring approach. Based on a magnification function determined for a camera lens, magnification levels for different regions of the captured images can be determined. At least some of these regions then can be adjusted or transformed in order to provide for a more consistent magnification levels across those regions, thereby reducing anamorphic effects. Where appropriate, gaps in the image can also be filled to enhance the image. At least some control over the amount of adjustment may be provided to users for aesthetic control.
