This paper presents a novel approach for estimating the 3-D translation of a rigid surface using a binocular observer. The method uses the general theory of moments and is based in the aggregate stereo approach. The computation of a limited set of moments of four images is necessary. Real-time implementation of the algorithm is feasible since image moments can be computed at frame rates very easily using parallel architectures.
