Calculating disparity map from color stereo images

This bachelor’s thesis deals with a creation of the depth maps. The first chapter concerns with the physiology of a human space perception and the methods of displaying the 3D content which are the topics closely related to the depth map, its creation and practical usage. Subsequently, there is a chapter focused on the description of the used methods of the image processing. The fundamental theoretical chapter deals with the methods of computing the disparity and used principles. In the practical part of the thesis an application has been made with a user interface in the Matlab environment. The application enables the user to create the disparity maps through the local and global methods. The functionalism of the application and the implementation of the methods are experimentaly verified. An experiment comparing the methods and analyzing influence of the local method parameters on the quality of the depth map has been made. The last part of the thesis was to create a simple stereopicture database
