CMOS STEREO CAMERA FOR OBTAINING THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGE
First Claim
1. A CMOS stereo camera for obtaining a three-dimensional image, the CMOS stereos camera comprising:
- left and right lenses which receives light from a point source of light on the same plane;
left and right CMOS image sensors which are disposed on a single substrate under the left and right lenses; and
a DSP (digital signal processor) which is formed between the left and right CMOS image sensors to extract three-dimensional information of the point source of light by receiving images from the left and right CMOS image sensors through data buses.

Abstract
A CMOS stereo camera for obtaining a three-dimensional image, in which two CMOS image sensors having the same characteristics are disposed on a single semiconductor substrate, is provided. The CMOS image sensors have image planes which are located on the same plane by disposing the two CMOS image sensors on the same semiconductor substrate. A digital signal processor (DSP) for processing a three-dimensional image is disposed between the CMOS image sensors. Optical axes of the CMOS image sensors are parallel with each other and orthogonal to the image planes. Since optical devices formed on the CMOS image sensors can be manufactured through the same processes, distortion of the optical axes between the two CMOS image sensors can be minimized.
