FED Stereo

A stereo camera is a type of camera with two or more lenses. This allows the camera to simulate human binocular vision, and therefore gives it the ability to capture 3-D Images, a process known as stereo photography. Stereo cameras may be used for making Stereoviews and 3D pictures for movies. The distance between the lenses in a stereo camera (the intra-axial distance) is about the distance between one's eyes (known as the intra-ocular distance) and is about 6.35cm, though a longer base line (greater inter-camera distance) produces more extreme 3-dimensionality.

Stereoscopy, stereoscopic imaging or 3-D (three-dimensional) imaging is a technique to create the illusion of depth in a photograph, movie, or other two-dimensional image, by presenting a slightly different image to each eye. ...

In the 1950s, Stereo cameras gained some popularity with the Stereo Realist and similar cameras that employed 135 film to make stereo slides. A Stereo Realist camera The Stereo Realist was a stereo camera that was manufactured by the David White Company from 1947 to 1972. ... 135 Film Size, Kodak Tri-X 400 speed 135 (ISO 1007) is a film format for still photography. ...


3D pictures following the theory behind stereo cameras can also be made more inexpensively by taking two pictures with the same camera, but moving the camera a few inches either left or right. If the image is edited so that each eye sees a different image, then the image will appear to be 3D. This method has problems with objects moving in the different views, though works well with still lifes.


There are sometimes stereo cameras mounted in cars that can detect the lane's width and the proximity of an obstacle on the road.


Note:Not all two lens cameras are for taking stereo! Some two lens cameras use one lens to view/focus & the other to obtain the image.

Computer vision - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (2670 words)
Since a camera can be seen as a light sensor, there are various methods in computer vision based on correspondences between a physical phenomenon related to light and images of that phenomenon.
Examples of noise processes which are considered are sensor noise (e.g., ultrasonic images) and motion blur (e.g., because of a moving camera or moving objects in the scene).
The aim of feature extraction is to further reduce the data to a set of features, which ought to be invariant to disturbances such as lighting conditions, camera position, noise and distortion.
