To reconstruct the 3D images of an optical microscope, two cameras are mounted on the optical microscope. Incoming images through an object lens of an optical microscope are projected on sensors of mounted cameras by using refraction mirrors. Two cameras capture the left and right images to reconstruct the final 3D images. In this paper, we correct the 3D reconstruction errors with the SURF algorithm. We also design a hardware system to correct wrong mirror positions using servo motors. In addition, we propose the surgical system with HMD and wireless communications. This system would be helpful for doctors due to make doctors comfortable and it can be used to educate surgery procedures.
