Abstract

A complete method to create a panoramic video mosaic is proposed in this paper. This method includes three principal processes: real-time frame selection, feature based estimation of an eight-parameter projective coordinate transformation, and image mosaic composing. This proposed method works well on many video sequences captured from a PC camera to generate both 360 degree and planar panoramas. Experimental results demonstrate the validity and superior quality of this proposed method.
