Claim 12:
13. The method of claim 4 further comprising performing stereoscopic image stabilization wherein said stereoscopic image stabilization comprises:
selecting at least one point on said tangible object in said area to be used as a stable reference point;
for an initial frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said first mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera,
identifying at least one point within said initial frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said first mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera that corresponds to said stable reference point;

for an initial frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said second mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera,
identifying at least one point within said initial frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said second mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera that corresponds to said stable reference point;

for a subsequent frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said first mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera,
identifying at least one point within said subsequent frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said first mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera that corresponds to said stable reference point;

for a subsequent frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said second mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera,
identifying at least one point within said subsequent frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said second mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera that corresponds to said stable reference point;

performing a first alignment comprising wherein:
said identified at least one point within said initial frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said first mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera is aligned with said identified at least one point within said subsequent frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said first mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera;

performing a second alignment comprising wherein:
said identified at least one point within said initial frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said second mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera is aligned with said identified at least one point within said subsequent frame of said acquired imagery of said area from said second mirror system configured to redirect light onto said camera; and

wherein said performing said first alignment is performed independently from said performing said second alignment.
