ABSTRACT:
Images sensed through object lenses100R and100L, having zoom lenses, with image sensors102R and102L are processed by image signal processors104R and104L, and an image of an object in each of the sensed images is separated from a background image on the basis of the processed image signals. The separated image signals representing the image of the object enter the image processor220, where a three-dimensional shape of the object is extracted on the basis of parameters used upon sensing the images. The parameters are automatically adjusted so that images of the object fall within the both image sensing areas of the image sensors102R and102L and that they fall within the both focal depths of the image sensors102R and102L.
