Abstract

See full text

The present invention discloses an image capturing device and a digital zoom method. The image capturing device comprises a first lens module, a second lens module, a feature extraction unit, an image zooming-deformation unit and an image merging unit. The first lens module and the second lens module are applied to capture a first image and a second image, respectively. The feature extraction unit extracts a plurality of first image features and second image features from the first image and the second image, respectively, and generating pixel offset characteristics. Based on a zoom factor and the pixel offset characteristics, the image zooming-deformation unit zooms and deforms the first and second images to generate a third image and a fourth image. The image merging unit bases the zoom factor to merge the third image and the fourth image for obtaining a combined image.
