Most of them apply local window based methods for real-time purposes. Normalized cross correlation (NCC) is notorious for its high computational cost, though it is robust to different illumination conditions between two cameras.

Its computational complexity has no relationship to the size of the matching window. Experimental results show that our algorithm can generate the same results as traditional normalized cross correlation with a much lower computational cost.
