Candle Flame Gif

Caption

The video shows the metalens depth sensor working in real-time to capture the depth of translucent candle flames. The two images on the left are the raw images captured on the camera sensor. They are formed by the metalens and are blurred slightly differently. From these two images, the researchers compute the depth of the objects in real time. The image on the right shows the computed depth map.
