This paper describes how the calculation of depth from stereo images was accelerated using a GPU. The Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) from NVIDIA was employed in novel ways to compute depth using BT cost matching and the semi-global matching algorithm. The challenges of mapping a sequential algorithm to a massively parallel thread environment and performance optimization techniques are considered.
