Title:
STEREO CAMERA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/115489
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A stereo camera (100) is provided with a left-eye-use camera (110), a right-eye-use camera (120), a beam splitter (130), and a configuration comprising a control unit and an inter-eye distance driving unit. The configuration comprising the control unit and the inter-eye distance driving unit adjusts the space between the optical axis of the left-eye-use camera (110) and the optical axis of the right-eye-use camera (120) by causing at least either the left-eye-use camera (110) or the right-eye-use camera (120) to move in the horizontal direction. Further, if the zoom factor of the left-eye-use camera (110) and the right-eye-use camera (120) is a first zoom factor, the configuration comprising the control unit and the inter-eye distance driving unit causes at least either the left-eye-use camera (110) or the right-eye-use camera (120) to move in the horizontal direction to a great extent as compared to a case where the zoom factor is a second zoom factor which is lower than the first zoom factor.
