Abstract

A stereoscopic image detecting unit has a first non-volatile memory for storing inherent camera characteristic data therein and an image processing unit has a second non-volatile memory for storing inherent circuit characteristic data therein. When the stereoscopic image detecting unit is connected with the image processing unit through a serial cable and video cables and then electric power is turned on, the inherent camera characteristic data are sent to the image processing unit. In the image processing unit, based on the camera data sent from the image detecting unit and the circuit characteristic data in the image processing unit, data for correcting the optical dispersion between two cameras and that of signal characteristic are established.
