Plural camera images capturing and processing apparatus, and composite imaging method

摘要

A plural camera images capturing and processing apparatus includes a plurality of cameras that capture images of a plurality of adjacent imaging regions which overlap each other, a plurality of laser devices that give a marker to each common imaging region in which imaging regions overlap each other, an imaging control unit that controls each camera and each laser device and acquires a markerless image group to which no marker is given and a marker-given image group to which the marker is given, a non-visible light image processing unit that calculates a correction parameter, which is information for aligning the inclinations, sizes, and positions of the imaging regions, on the basis of the marker-given image group, and a visible light image processing unit that composes the markerless image group to generate a composite image, on the basis of the correction parameter.

主权项

1. A plural camera images capturing and processing apparatus comprising:
a plurality of imaging means that capture images of a plurality of adjacent imaging regions which overlap each other; one or a plurality of marker giving means that give a marker to each common imaging region in which the imaging regions overlap each other; an imaging control means that controls the imaging means and the marker giving means and acquires a markerless image group in which no marker is given to the common imaging region and a marker-given image group in which the marker is given to the common imaging region; a correction parameter calculation means that calculates a correction parameter for connecting the imaging regions using the marker-given image group; and an image composition means that composes the markerless image group to generate a composite image on the basis of the correction parameter.
