Conclusion

In conclusion replicating Stereo Imaging was a success. We achieved proportional depth maps, that accurately map the 3D space of a scene given two images of the same scene at different angles. Granted there was a lot of control in this experiment the given camera positions and disparities, it was prone to many instabilities. These instabilities did not ruin the depth map, but threw off certain regions that could be accounted for. However when two photos were deliberately taken with terminating ends in view, the algorithm work very well. Future scope of this project would be given many images of the same scene at many different angles and without camera positions we could recreate a complete 3D replication of the scene, object. This could then be used to replicate intricate worlds and scenes with incredible detail.
