Abstract(in English) This paper describes a new polynocula stereo machine (CV-50) that performs real-time acquisition of dense depth map. The reduction of matching ambiguities, that is the most crucial part in stereo matching can be achieved by simple filtering operations. An efficient pipeline architecture for detecting the disparities in the successive similarity image stream is employed by making the best use of 2D convolvers. In addition, an efficient implementation method of LoG filtering for multiple images is employed. Accordingly, a compact and high performance stereo machine like ours can be rapidly designed. Many enhancements such as geometric calibration, LoG data compression and subpixel disparity calculation are also realized. The total performance far exceeds that of the existing stereo systems including CMU stereo machine.
