Patent ID: 11954879
Assignee: MOVIDIUS LTD.
Field: Audio-visual technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G  H

Claim 0:
1. A stereo camera comprising:
a first camera to capture a first image including a first pixel and a central pixel of a pixel kernel;
a second camera to capture a second image including a second pixel; and
at least one processor to at least:
determine a disparity value associated with a first location of the first pixel having a first intensity value and a second location of the second pixel, the disparity value based on a comparison of the first intensity value and a second intensity value of the second pixel;
generate a disparity map based on the disparity value, the disparity map to be representative of at least a difference in the first location and the second location;
output:
a stereo image based on a determination that the first pixel corresponds to the second pixel based on the disparity map; and
a bit string based on second comparisons of third intensity values of the pixel kernel and the second intensity value;

generate a first bit descriptor based on the bit string and the second intensity value
determine an absolute value of a difference between the first intensity value and the second intensity value;
determine a Hamming distance between a second bit descriptor and a third bit descriptor, the second bit descriptor based on the first pixel and the second bit descriptor based on the second pixel; and
clamp a sum of the absolute value and the Hamming distance to the disparity value.
