Abstract :
In this work, we develop an approach for an analog VLSI system that computes visual depth from motion parallax. As the objects move across the observer´s visual field, their retinal images also drift at different rates proportional to their distance from the observer. Their relative velocity gives perception of relative depth. The ultimate goal is to implement the visual task of determining the depth of moving objects from their retinal velocities (motion parallax) in analog VLSI.
