A stereo matching algorithm implemented in the stereovision system is presented. The algorithm provides dense depth or disparity maps necessary to perform 3D reconstruction of the observed scene. The term "dense" refers to the fact that the algorithm calculates depth value for each pixel of one of stereo images. Along with the implemented stereo matching algorithm, a method of its verification is proposed, by means of generating for each disparity map, a respective certainty map which holds information about likeliness that the respective disparity value was well chosen.
