Abstract
A stereoscopic computer vision system that uses a novel algorithm for obtaining the best match between corresponding features in the left and right images of desired objects in the image scene, finds the disparity between corresponding features in the left and right views and then uses the disparity to calculate the distance of the desired object from the two cameras used to provide the left and right images.
