Stereo Vision Evaluation kit

This is the evaluation kit for high performance Stereo Vision IP Suite from Fujisoft.

You can start evaluation immediately with our all-in-one evaluation kit at reasonable prices, which includes Altera® Cyclone® V SoC evaluation board, Stereo Vision IP Suite evaluation version, and 5 megapixel CMOS stereo camera. Software for computer and stereo image viewer are also included.

A stereo camera is one of sensor that measures distance as well as infrared and millimeter wave radar. It uses triangulation with stereo camera same as when people see things. Shooting images with two cameras on the left and right produces disparity data. It can measure the distance from cameras to the object surface with this disparity data. It also can be used to detect unevenness of surrounding area, to measure the actual size of the object and the location. Furthermore, it can accurately identify marks on the road surface such as white line, yellow line, etc., and side walls and road shoulder, which are boundaries of the driving area, which are difficult with infrared and millimeter wave radar.
