ABSTRACT:
A system of determining three-dimensional information from the information that is contained into discrete two-dimensional images. The two images may be obtained from two uncalibrated cameras. The information from the two uncalibrated cameras is first rectified, and then used to form a disparity surface indicating the third dimensional information. Various techniques are used to increase the speed of conversion.
