| Abstract(in English) | Stereo vision is a well-known method of three-dimensional instrumentation. A major issue of stereo vision is to establish reliable correspondence between images. This article presents a reliable stereo-matching algorithm based on SAD(Sum of Absolute Differences)computation. Reliable corresponding points can be found by selecting a desirable window size of the SAD computation based on the uniqueness of a minimum value of the SAD graph. A pixel-serial window-parallel scheduling is also proposed to achieve 100% utilization of processing elements. The stereo vision VLSI processor is fabricated in a gate-array-based approach. Its performance is more than 400 times higher than that of a general-purpose processor. |
