Augmented reality system containing depth information acquisition and method thereof

The invention provides an augmented reality system containing depth information acquisition and a method thereof, and is applicable to electronic apparatuses. The augmented reality system comprises a first image acquisition unit for acquiring images, a processing unit for executing augmented reality applications and loading augmented reality image in images to form augmented reality images, a second image acquisition unit for acquiring depth data in target images of the augmented reality images, and a displaying unit for displaying augmented reality images, wherein the processing unit determines the shielding relation between the augmented reality images and target images according to depth data. 本发明提供种包含深度信息获取的扩增实境系统及方法，适用于电子装置，其特征在于，包括:第影像撷取单元，用以撷取影像；处理单元，用以执行扩增实境应用程序并于影像中加载扩增实境图像以形成扩增实境影像；第二影像撷取单元，用以取得扩增实境影像中目标物影像的深度数据；以及显示单元，用以显示扩增实境影像；其中处理单元依据深度数据判断扩增实境图像与目标物影像的遮挡关系。
