โฆ Synopsis
An optical and digital method has been developed for the detection of the depth of small particles distributed in 3D space and its performance has been examined in numerical simulations and experiments. The present method is based on depth-fromdefocus in which the depth of particle is detected from the image blur of the particle. The results of numerical simulations show that low-pass ยฎltering is eective for the reduction of error. In the experiments with a single 3CCD color camera, it is found that the RMS error of the present method is 1.81 mm for the depth range of 40 mm.

Recovering the depth information derived from dynamic scenes implies real-time range estimation. This paper addresses the implementation of a bifocal range sensor which estimates the depth by measuring the relative blurring between two images captured with di erent focal settings. To recover the dep
This paper presents an algorithm for a dense computation of the difference in blur between two images. The two images are acquired by varying the intrinsic parameters of the camera. The image formation system is assumed to be passive. Estimation of depth from the blur difference is straightforward.
