DEFINITION

Classification: 359/470

Compensates for camera position (e.g., plotting or mapping type):

(under subclass 466) Subject matter wherein compensation is made for the orientation or position of the recording device or devices which produced the stereo pictures.

(1) Note. This subject matter generally involves stereoscopes for plotting, mapping, or measuring where the raw data must be adjusted to compensate for such things as parallax, different image size, skew, or tilt, etc., caused by a particular camera orientation.
