Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a stereo image processing device that is capable of expanding the effective field of view by using a lens having distortion for realizing a wide field of view. This stereo image processing device has two sensors arranged so as to be shifted from the optical axes of respective lenses in directions separating each other, wherein each of the lenses has a property such that the distortion, in a region of a large viewing angle, is greater than that of an fθ lens.
