Except humans derive distance/depth information from their sight (depth perception), that's why we have a pair of eyes and not a single eye.
The equivalent on this setting would be adding a second camera.
I'm not criticizing, their experiment is pretty cool, I was just wondering why they chose to use only the camera on board.

We do depth perception well enough at distances to drive cars. We also do just fine at perceiving depth in video games and single lens camera. How often do you have trouble determining the depth of something in a movie? Only about as often as the filmmakers want you to.
