This paper presents a stereoscopic vision system for the
mini-robot Khepera. The vision system performs objects
detection by using the stereo disparity and stereo
correspondence. The stereoscopic vision system enhances
robot’s visual perception ability by grabbing stereo images
and analysis 3D objects, while the robot doesn’t need to
move. The simple principle of our stereo vision is the less
displacement of correspondence pixels shows that the
pixels object is far away. To realize the stereo vision and
its calculation algorithms, the mini robot needs a powerful
FPGA and micro-controller module as well as 2D color
cameras. An application of Khepera equipped with the
stereoscopic camera is robot soccer in the KheperaSot
league. In the match, the robot has to be able to detect its
environment, i.e. the ball, walls, goals and its opponent.
