Abstract

This paper describes the use of stereoscopic photography devices during manned space flights from 2005 to 2011. The principles and approaches used to create ERB (Erasmus Recording Binoculars) cameras are reviewed. ERB-1 was the first fully digital stereo camera used on board of manned spacecrafts. The main distinguishing features of ERB-1 and ERB-2 as well as the main results and conclusions based on the experience of using stereo video cameras on board of the International Space Station are described in the paper.
