Images sensed through object lenses 100R and 100L, having zoom lenses,
with image sensors 102R and 102L are processed by image signal processors
104R and 104L, and an image of an object in each of the sensed images is
separated from a background image on the basis of the processed image
signals. The separated image signals representing the image of the object
enter the image processor 220, where a three-dimensional shape of the
object is extracted on the basis of parameters used upon sensing the
images. The parameters are automatically adjusted so that images of the
object fall within the both image sensing areas of the image sensors 102R
and 102L and that they fall within the both focal depths of the image
sensors 102R and 102L.
