Abstract
A system for generating a disparity map includes: an image obtainer obtaining a left image and a right image; a matching cost calculator calculating a matching cost for each of a plurality of pixels of the left image and the right image; an accumulation and summation calculator calculating an accumulation value of one of the pixels based on the calculated matching cost, and calculating a relaxation accumulation value, which is an average of values obtained by multiplying each of relation coefficients between a disparity value of the one pixel and disparity values of surrounding pixels of the one pixel with the accumulation value of the one pixel; a disparity value deliver deriving a disparity value for each of the pixels based on the calculated relaxation accumulation value; and a disparity map generator generating the disparity map based on the derived disparity value.
