Abstract :
A visual auxiliary method for compensating binocular vision deficiency, which has problems in identifying stereoscopic presentations, is proposed in this paper to reduce the inconvenience in the daily life. To solve this defect problem, a stereo information compensation algorithm, combining the image matching, triangulation algebra, and the image segmentation algorithms, is adopted to append the distance information into a single view image to achieve this purpose. Experimental results show that through the compensation process, users with binocular vision deficiency are capable of acquiring the relative distances and depth information of 3D objects in real space and can further define their perceptions of the world around them to avoid collision dangers.
