3D image technologies are widely recognized as the next generation of visual presentation considering the achievement of more natural experiences. To produce such images, two cameras are placed in a bit different position. When we seek to compress such images, we need a procedure to compress two images synchronously. In this paper, a procedure is presented for a suitable compression based on fractal compression which shows that we obtain high compression rate with an appropriate image quality; however, since the proposed procedure has a low search speed, we used genetic algorithm to remove the case.
