Distance estimation is one of these applications that a lot of researches made to develop it. Visionary sensors such as stereo vision optimization method is one of the most efficient methods among traditional sensors that have been used to estimate a depth from 3D reconstructed scene. Vision sensor can be used in rescue robots mission instead of human providing a way to estimate the distance between the robot camera and the objects in front it and give a 3D model of that obstacle which can help rescuers. Although vision sensors have some disadvantages such as the change of illumination of the captured images and the change in the background. In this project, the objectives are developing a stereo vision system to extract depth from 3D reconstructed scene, analyse the performance of the proposed stereo vision system and develop a graphical user interface (GUI) to monitor the performance of the stereo vision system.
