Claim 0:
1. An image processing apparatus, comprising:
an image sensor comprising a depth-image pixel array, the image sensor configured to generate a first set of input information representing a first depth image and a second set of input information representing a second depth image;
a mode control circuit configured to generate a mode signal indicating a selection of one of a plurality of operation modes of the image processing apparatus, wherein selecting one of the plurality of operation modes is configured to save power or enhance image quality; and
a calculating circuit coupled to the mode control circuit and configured to:
receive the mode signal;
determine, based on the mode signal, a first weighting value associated with the first depth image and a second weighting value associated with the second depth image; and
generate, based on the first and the second sets of input information and the first and the second weighting values, an output information representing an output depth image.
