1. A middle frame image processing apparatus comprising:
a first image sensor configured to output a first middle frame image data object based on a first full frame image size and a middle frame image size;
a second image sensor configured to output a second middle frame image data object based on a second full frame image size and the middle frame image size; and
a processor that is in data communication with the first image sensor and the second image sensor, the processor configured to:
select an image sensor from the first image sensor and the second image sensor;
receive a middle frame image data object from the selected image sensor, wherein the middle frame image data object is one of the first middle frame image data object and the second middle frame image data object; and
process the middle frame image data object.
