The paper presents the method of measuring the distance to the object based on digital image processing. The solution is characterized in that the distance measurement to the object is performed by a motionless camera with established and unchanged parameters during measurement. The camera is equipped with a one non-stereoscopic lens. The measured distance is determined on the basis of one view of an object presented on one image. The image is made at a constant and invariant setting of the optical path such as: focus, aperture and focal length.
