Abstract

Stereo vision is an important branch of the research area in computer vision. Among the techniques of stereo vision, binocular stereo vision which is based on processing two images remains a research hotspot. Binocular stereo vision directly simulates the manner of human eyes observing one scene from two different viewpoints. By using the principle of triangulation, the disparities of a number of 3D points mapped to pixels in two images are computed. Then the visual information of depth is also recovered. The object surface shape can be acquired using these disparities. In this paper, a pair of common web cameras is used to collect images. Based on OpenCV, the calibration algorithm of stereo vision is achieved. Stereo rectify and stereo matching algorithm are also rapidly and efficiently implemented. Finally, the depth information of object is obtained.
