There are two types of 3D vision systems:
those requiring two images ;
those that can be exploited with just one.
4.1 Two-image stereoscopic systems
The first stereoscopic vision device was designed by Wheatstone in 1838.

Coinciding with the invention of photography, stereoscopes quickly integrated the two processes to make use...
