1. An electronic apparatus comprising:
a memory configured to store a first image frame and first depth information of the first image frame; and
at least one processor connected to the memory, wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
obtain second depth information of a second image frame that is subsequent to the first image frame,
obtain an image difference value between the first image frame and the second image frame,
identify a first weight corresponding to the first depth information and a second weight corresponding to the second depth information, wherein the first weight and the second weight are based on the obtained image difference value and a threshold value,
obtain final depth information corresponding to the second image frame by applying the first weight to the first depth information and applying the second weight to the second depth information, and
generate, based on the obtained final depth information, an image related to the second image frame or transmit the obtained final depth information to an external device.
