Abstract
Only few problems in computer vision have been investigated more vigorously than stereo. Nevertheless, almost all methods use only gray values and most of them are feature-based techniques, i.e., they produce only sparse depth maps. This paper presents an efficient technique for dense stereo correspondence using a new Polychromatic Block Matching. Four different color models (RGB, XYZ, I1I2I3, HSI) and three different color measures have been investigated with regard to their suitability for stereo matching. As a result the I1I2I3 color space provides the best information for stereo when using the Euclidean distance for color measurement.
