Background:

  • Stereoscopic systems use spatial disparities between images for depth perception.
  • Auditory systems determine sound source azimuth using temporal delays.
  • A similarity exists between visual disparity analysis and auditory localization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To transpose spatial disparity analysis into the temporal domain.
  • To develop a real-time depth retrieval algorithm using causal filters.
  • To explore algorithmic similarities between visual and auditory processing.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized two causal electronic filters (resonators) to analyze temporal phase differences.
  • Transposed spatial disparity analysis into a temporal domain algorithm.
