Abstract:
Provided are a stereoscopic distance measuring apparatus and method, and a computer readable program. The apparatus includes first and second optical cameras, first and second position-posture meters, an image corrector, and a stereoscopic distance measuring unit. The first and second position-posture meters acquire first and second position-posture information regarding the first and second optical cameras. The image corrector corrects, on the basis of the first and second position-posture information, positions and orientations of a plurality of first and second images taken by the first and second optical cameras, to generate a plurality of first and second corrected images. The stereoscopic distance measuring unit calculates a distance to a photographing target, on the basis of a pair of the corrected images including one of the plurality of the first corrected images and one of the plurality of the second corrected images.
