DISTANCE MEASURING CAMERA

A distance measuring camera contains a first imaging system for obtaining a first image containing a first subject image, a second imaging system for obtaining a second image containing a second subject image, a size obtaining part for detecting a plurality of feature points of the first subject image in the first image and measure a distance between the feature points of the first subject image to obtain a size of the first subject image and utilizes an epipolar line to detect a plurality of feature points of the second subject image respectively corresponding to the plurality of feature points of the first subject image and measures a distance between the feature points of the second subject image to obtain a size of the second subject image and a distance calculating part for calculating a distance to the subject based an image magnification ratio between a magnification of the first subject image and a magnification of the first subject image and a magnification of the second subject image.
