The disclosure is about seamless localization of multiple devices, by matching overlaps between images captured by the devices. A first device (201) sends a request (300) to other devices (211, 221, 231) and receives the images captured by their cameras (311, 312, 313). Overlaps between images are detected and corresponding positions of the devices are computed (330) from these overlaps. Finally, the positions are sent back (350) to the devices. The orientation towards a magnetic north can be used to rotate the captured images and metadata related to image and devices can be used to scale the captured images, thus allowing to use simpler image processing algorithms. Methods and devices are claimed. |
