Abstract. The paper continues a series of studies devoted to mathematical modeling and optimization of optical stereo system configuration, consists of video camera and two flat mirrors. In previous work, we developed a model that takes into account various constraints on the configuration of such a system: the size of the stereo base, the size of the mirrors, overall dimensions of the optical system, the absence of double reflection of light rays, preventing the situation when the video camera is reflected in the mirrors. A conditional optimization problem is formulated, the perimeter of the rectangle that bounds the optical system is chosen as the objective function.

In this work we added a set of constraints to the model that define the configuration of the working area, which is formed by the intersection of the fields of view of two virtual cameras. The corresponding changes were made to the program for the numerical solution of the constrained optimization problem using the SciPy package. The results obtained expand the theory of computer vision and can be used in the creation and research of computer vision systems for robotic systems and non-destructive testing systems.
