Abstract

The paper presents a comparison of a practical implementation of some area-based stereo algorithms. There are many stereo algorithms known that employ area based processing for matching of two or more images. However, much less information is available on practical implementations and applications of such methods, as well as their advantages and limitation. The work has been done to fill this gap and facilitate choice of the right stereo algorithm for machine vision applications, often using off-the-shelf cameras
