Abstract
A method includes calculating a stereo-disparity map between the initial image and the final image, for each column of the stereo-disparity map, calculating an average value of the stereo-disparities of the pixels of the column, calculating the slope and/or constant factor of a linear function approximating variations of said average values; and calculating said information relative to the relative speed between the object and the camera, based on the slope and/or the constant factor.
