Abstract: A three-dimensional imaging system for generating a 3D panoramic video/image is disclosed. The three-dimensional imaging system includes a plurality of stereoscopic pairs of compound cameras which are separated by a predefined distance d. The imaging system is configured to operate in a first mode to generate panoramic images simultaneously using the compound cameras. Spatial distortion and temporal distortion are calculated for each column in a region of overlap of the field of view of the panoramic images generated. The column for which the spatial and temporal distortion is minimum is marked as a seam location. The marked seam location is changed based on location of a motion in the column for which the calculated spatial and temporal distortion is minimum.

A mapping function is implemented for each of the plurality of zones based on a number of consecutive frames in which presence of a face is analyses and a minimum number of frames in which a face was detected. A zoom engine determines a region of interest which includes a left edge and a right edge, wherein said left edge is set based on coordinates associated with a face detected in a left most zone of the unstitched images, and said right edge is set based on coordinates associated with a right most face detected in a right most zone of the unstitched images.
