Method and system for generating panoramic images from video sequences

摘要

The invention relates to generating panoramic images of foreground and background panorama. Within mosaiced panoramic images there will often be more than one pixel value available for each pixel position. In the invention pixel values for a foreground panoramic image are selected by taking the most extraordinary pixel as foreground, and pixel values for a background image are selected by taking a median pixel value. We have found that such pixel selection gives improved results with respect to the prior art.
