Disparity map generation for color image using TOF depth camera

Abstract

We propose an effective method for disparity map generation for a color image using a time-of-flight (TOF) depth camera. After we capture the color and TOF depth images, the processed depth information is warped into color image positions as a form of disparity. Then, by applying the averaging operation in each segment, we obtain the disparity map. Experimental results show the correct and stable disparity maps, compared to stereo matching results.
