Optimal non-uniform discretization for stereo reconstruction

In stereo vision the depth of a 3D point is estimated based on the position of its projections on the left and right images. The imaging sensors of cameras, such as charge coupled devices (CCD), consist of discrete pixels. The discretization of images generates uncertainty in estimation of the depth at each 3D point. In this paper, we study the discretization of stereo images that provides the best 3D perception to an end-user. The research will be used to create optimal designs for head-mounted or LCD-based stereo displays
