Abstract

A method and apparatus for acquiring an image disparity are provided. The method may include acquiring, from dynamic vision sensors, a first image having a first view of an object and a second image having a second view of the object; calculating a cost within a preset disparity range of an event of first image and a corresponding event of the second image; calculating an intermediate disparity of the event of the first image and an intermediate disparity of the event of the second image based on the cost; determining whether the event of the first image is a matched event based on the intermediate disparity of the event of the first image and the intermediate disparity of the event of the second image; and predicting optimal disparities of all events of the first image based on an intermediate disparity of the matched event of the first imaged.
