Abstract
A method of depth perception based on binary laser speckle images comprises: read in binary input and reference speckle images (pattern fixed, distance known) to generate input and reference speckle windows, extract an image block of a certain size in the input speckle window, search for the matching block in the matching search window of the reference speckle window, use a method for block-based XOR (exclusive or) similarity calculation to compare and output a minimum similarity value or use a block-based IAD (inclusive and) method to compare and output a maximum similarity value to get the optimal matching block and the optimal offset, and then work out the depth information of the central point of the optimal matching block via a formula for depth calculation. The method not only can be easily implemented in hardware and greatly simplify depth calculation, but can also generate high-resolution and high-precision depth information in a fast and accurate manner.
