Abstract
The problem of obtaining stereo images of objects in arbitrary narrow spectral intervals is considered. A method of accomplishing this task is proposed, according to which the two light beams forming a stereopair are simultaneously filtered in one acousto-optic cell and the output beams are separated with respect to polarization. An optimum geometry of diffraction is found and requirements to the acousto-optic filter are formulated. The main characteristics of the spectral stereo system are determined.
