The computerized development always was on the center of attraction. More accurate result generation in shorter time period has done by computers, make humans eager to givescomputers moreresponsibility and tasks. Computer vision is one of thesetasks that for past centuries take lots of timeand effortone the rodeofperfection. One of the areas in the computer vision is stereo vision or Stereopsis. This area start in early I970's and still up to day is one of the mysteries part of computer vision. Peoples try to make computer sees as human see. Up today there are manyalgorithm developed and invented by scientist but it's long way to go. The main purpose of this report is to shows how it's possible for computer to calculate depth irom 2D images and then base on some algorithms, it tries to construct 3D result. But whywe need to make all these efforts andwhy it's so important to make computer sees as human see. One ofthe strongest effects ofthis process is for 3D animation development. Generating 3D libraries and assist game developers or generally graphic developers. Imagine for development of one hour movie 60 computers work for one year and see how fast it will be to have all the models available in very short time. Another effect of this system if for virtual realities systems. Beside 3D modeling which require real-time rendering it also require certain amount oftracking for user interaction. This process normally handle by sensors, where its limited to few sensors and also it makes users uncomfortable and its harder for virtual environment to be more realistic for users.
