Hi Vistor1234,

may I explained not well enough. I have one digital camera in my hand and take the 1st picture. Then I move myself 10cm to the right and take the 2nd picture also by hand. Since the camera is not fixed on a tripod or something else, there will be a horizontal, vertical and rotational difference between 1st and 2nd picture. So I cannot do any camera calibration, I need to correct ever image pair. This I want to do by functions of OpenCV, but I don't know where to start.

Thanks again for further help...

Hi,

I am brand new to OpenCV and want to know if it is possible to align two stereo images taken by one after the other by a single camera (as know as cha-cha technique). The steps is as follows:

1. Take one picture
2. Move the cam horizontally 10cm
3. Take a second picture

(Of course only stills can be taken this way, no images of moving objects)

My question now, how can I align these two pictures using OpenCV to create a comfortable anaglyph red / cyan stereo image?

OpenCV should do following, if possible:

1. Correct differences in rotation and translation of the images
2. Correct differences in contrast / hue / saturation / white balance / etc.
3. Correct lens distortion (but without camera calibration! (if possible))
4. Align the two images vertically
5. Align the two images horizontally to get comfortable stereo images
6. Convert to red/cyan

Since I am brand new to OpenCV it would be great if someone can give me some hints how to achieve this. A list of OpenCV functions to consider/call would be great.

Thanks a lot!
