Title: Depth perception in stereo computer vision.
Author: Thompson, Clark
Date: October 1975
Abstract: This report describes a stereo vision approach to depth perception; the author has build upon a set of programs that decompose the problem in the following way: 1) Production of a camera model: the position and orientation of the cameras in 3-space. 2) Generation of matching point-pairs: loci of corresponding features in the two pictures. 3) Computation of the point in 3-space for each point-pair. 4) Presentation of the resultant depth information.
