Patent number: 8269820Abstract: Epipolar lines of first and second images are made consistent with each other in a paralleling step, so that it has the advantages (1) and (2) as set forth in the background section. Further, distortions of the first and second images are corrected in a correcting step, and, even if characters conversion is carried out, it can avoid excessively reduction of central portions in the first and second images or excessively enlargement of side edge portions. Thus, while maintaining of the above mentioned advantages (1) and (2), wide angle image acquiring method and a wide angle stereo camera device which make three-dimensional space holding possible can be provided.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2007Date of Patent: September 18, 2012Assignee: Konica Minolta Holdings, Inc.Inventor: Hitoshi Koyanagi
