SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECTIFIED MOSAICING OF IMAGES RECORDED BY A MOVING CAMERA

摘要

A system is described for generating (Fig. 1) a rectified mosaic image from a plurality of individual images, the system comprising a quadrangular region defining module (105), a warping module and a mosaicing module. The quadrangular region defining module is configured to define in one individual image a quadrangular region in relation to two points on a vertical anchor in the one individual image and mappings of two points on a vertical anchor in at least one other individual image into the one individual image (100). The warping module is configured to warp the quadrangular region to a rectangular region. The mosaicing module configured to mosaic the quadrangular region to the mosaic image. The system further generates a mosaic from a plurality of panoramic images, the system comprising a motion determining module (123), a normalizing module, a strip selection module, and a mosaicing module.
