Abstract
An apparatus including a stereo camera and a processor. The stereo camera may comprise a first capture device and a second capture device in a vertical orientation. The first capture device may be configured to generate first pixel data and the second capture device may be configured to generate second pixel data. The processor may be configured to receive the first pixel data and the second pixel data, generate a vertical disparity image in response to the first pixel data and the second pixel data, generate a virtual horizontal disparity image in response to the first pixel data and the vertical disparity image and detect objects by analyzing the vertical disparity image and the virtual horizontal disparity image. An analysis of the virtual horizontal disparity image may enable the processor to detect the objects not detected in the vertical disparity image alone.
