Abstract:
A stereoscopic vision system captures stereoscopic images. The stereoscopic images are processed to rapidly discriminate between portions of the images that are on a ground-plane and those that are off the ground plane. The discrimination is based on comparing locations within the images using an expected disparity shift.
