Abstract:
1. A method, comprising: obtaining two images of similar image information from two uncalibrated sources; superimposing lines formed on said images to rectify the two images relative to one another to form rectified images; using said rectified images to form three-dimensional information by forming a disparity map of three dimensional information for specified coordinates of matching pixels; wherein said using comprises forming a three-dimensional surface indicative of three-dimensional information contained in said two images, and forming a variable which indicates a likelihood of error in said three-dimensional surface; and wherein said forming a variable comprises forming a plurality of seed voxels which have a probability of being correct greater than a specificed amount which makes it unlikely that the voxels will not be correct, and tracing a surface from said plurality of seed voxels.
