A system for establishing a baseline of a stereoscopic imaging device having a microlens array and methods for making and using the same. The system acquires an object distance between the microlens array and an object of interest and selects first and second lenses from the microlens array based upon the acquired object distance. The system likewise can perform simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) with the imaging device. In one embodiment, the system can acquire first and second stereoscopic frames with the microlens array. The system thereby can measure rotations of the second stereoscopic frame with an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and match the first and second stereoscopic frames by combining the rotation data with the first and second stereoscopic frames. The system thereby can enable SLAM systems to perform more accurately and more practically in various indoor and/or outdoor environments.
