Abstract

Stereoscopy in which at least one image of a scene is recorded from a first viewing angle, and at least one image of the scene is recorded from a second viewing angle. The scene is recorded multiple times from the first viewing angle. A first combination image is obtained from the various images recorded from the first viewing angle, said combination image according to the stipulation of a comparison algorithm having smaller differences in relation to at least one image also recorded from the second viewing angle or smaller differences in relation to a second combination image obtained from the images from the second viewing angle than each individual image recorded from the first viewing angle. An image of the scene with the depth information is obtained from the first combination image and at least one image from the second viewing angle or the second combination image.
