AMBIENT LIGHT SUPPRESSION

According to an aspect, there is provided a system (200) comprising: an image projection unit (210) configured to project an illumination pattern onto at least a portion of a scene, an imaging unit (220) configured to capture a plurality of images of the scene while the illumination pattern is projected onto the scene, and a processing unit (230) configured to: demodulate the plurality of images based on the illumination pattern and with respect to a target section in the plurality of captured images, wherein the target section corresponds to one of: a portion of the scene on which the illumination pattern is selectively projected while the plurality of images were captured, a portion of the scene at which the projected illumination pattern is resolvable, a portion of the scene with pixel depth values which satisfy a predetermined range; and generate an ambient light supressed image of the scene based on results of the demodulation.
