Abstract: An algorithm for estimating the disparity of objects of
interest is proposed. This algorithm uses image shifting and
overlapping area to estimate the disparity value; thereby depth of the
objects of interest can be obtained. The algorithm is able to perform
at different levels of accuracy. However, as the accuracy increases
the processing speed decreases. The algorithm is tested with static
stereo images and sequence of stereo images. The experimental
results are presented in this paper.
