Abstract

A stereo matching system and a stereo matching method using the same. Here, a Sum of Edge Differences (SED) method as a disparity estimation method utilizing edge information is added to a disparity estimation method utilizing a local method to perform stereo matching. As such, it is possible to correct false matching in a non-texture region generated when stereo matching is performed using only a local method, thereby enabling good stereo matching.
