Abstract

In this paper, the distance from the camera to the object is measured by using stereo camera. The stereo camera acquires two images which have a disparity from left and right camera. The disparity could be calculated by stereo matching of two images and using the disparity, the distance was calculated by triangular method. The distance estimation was carried out as widen the distance from the camera to the object with several operation methods of stereo matching. The result of experiment was under 10 percent error compared with the real distance. Therefore, by using this result, stereo camera would be adapt to the object tracking robot research or any other related area.
