    Abstract: An image capturing arrangement is provided which comprises a depth (3D) sensor, a processor, an illuminating device and one or more image capturing devices. The depth sensor is configured to acquire at least a partial representation of the scene whose image is about to be taken, the processor retrieves required information from the acquired representation about distances of objects included in that scene from the sensor, and the illuminating device is configured to provide a non-uniform illumination of the scene whose image is to be captured, based on the retrieved information.

    Abstract: A method is provided for use in a stereoscopic image generating system comprising two cameras, a plurality of memory buffers, and at least one processor. The method comprises: identifying at least one common region of interest (ROI) at images obtained from the two cameras; generating a Look Up table (LUT), for holding displacement values of pixels that belong to the at least one common ROI; forwarding data associated with images obtained from the two cameras that relates to the at least one common ROI, to the plurality of memory buffers; processing output lines retrieved from the plurality of memory buffers and propagating data that relates to a YUV image and associated LUTs, wherein the propagating of the data is carried out at a rate associated with a respective memory buffer from which that data is retrieved; and generating a stereoscopic image based on the propagated data.

    Abstract: A system for video conferencing is disclosed. The system comprises a data processor which receives from a remote location a stream of imagery data of a remote user, and displays an image of the remote user on a display device. The data processor also receives a stream of imagery data of an individual in a local scene in front of the display device, and extracts a gaze direction and/or a head orientation of the individual. The data processor varies a view of the image responsively to the gaze direction and/or the head orientation.

    Abstract: A method is provided for obtaining a disparity map for reconstructing a three dimensional image. The map is based upon a large range of disparities and is obtained by using a hardware provided with a buffer capable of storing data that relates to substantially less disparities than a data associated with the large disparities' range. The method comprises the steps of: providing a pair of stereoscopic images captured by two image capturing devices; dividing the large disparities' range into N disparity ranges; executing a stereo matching algorithm for a plurality of times, using data retrieved from a pair of captured images, wherein the algorithm is executed each time while using a different disparity range out of the N disparity ranges, thereby obtaining a plurality of individual disparity maps, each corresponding to a different disparity range; and merging the individual disparity maps to generate a map of the large disparities' range.
