Abstract

A new approach to stereo vision based on similarities between optical flow estimation and disparity computation is introduced. The fully parallel algorithm utilizes fast filter operations and aliasing effects of simple disparity detectors within a coherence detection scheme. It is able to calculate dense disparity maps, verification counts and the cyclopean view of a scene within a single computational structure.
