Abstract
Systems and methods for correcting stereo yaw of a stereoscopic image sensor pair using autofocus feedback are disclosed. A stereo depth of an object in an image is estimated from the disparity of the object between the images captured by each sensor of the image sensor pair. An autofocus depth to the object is found from the autofocus lens position. If the difference between the stereo depth and the autofocus depth is non zero, one of the images is warped and the disparity is recalculated until the stereo depth and the autofocus depth to the object is substantially the same.
