CAMERA DEPTH PREDICTION USING GENERATIVE ADVERSARIAL NETWORK

An apparatus and method for improving camera depth estimations for a moving subject in the camera field of view. The camera utilizes a generative adversarial network (GAN) to predict future frames from a current frame(s). These predicted future frames are then utilized as a target for determining a depth map from which lens focusing direction and distance are determined for moving the camera into proper focus and thus reducing focusing errors on captured frames as target and/or camera motion progresses.
