At 20fps, could you make a 3d camera app by the user moving their camera in space and then correcting for stabilization with the accelerometers etc telling you point in space and using the multiple view points as individual cameras.


That's a really interesting machine vision problem and a lot more complex than a JPEG codec. :-)

I wonder how long before we start to see Kinect-like infrared cameras mounted on phones to make the depth problem easier to solve. That would be cool!


I want to see if you could use all the rapid frames, plus a variant of that cool Adobe image de-blurring tech [1] that was shown a while ago to produce a clearer, sharper image during motion?

There's still much innovation left in image signal processing... and fortunately much interest in taking good photos!

This reminds me of research into superresolution, an area that's "super interesting" :-) as well.

The guys who started Occipital (360 Panorama), I believe, tried to dabble in that with ClearCam many years ago... but I honestly don't know much about it. Anyone from Occipital here on HN?


Or you could just use individual frames and bundle adjustment.... even via free online software like 123D Catch. ;) http://www.123dapp.com/catch
