Abstract: A system and method for generating a mosaic image from respective regions in a plurality of individual images, at least one of the regions being distorted and having a left and/or right edge that is tilted relative to a direction of view of the respective image. The distorted regions are rectified so as to form a respective rectified rectangular region and at least some of the rectified rectangular regions are mosaiced to form the mosaic image.

Abstract: A system is described for generating a rectified mosaic image from a plurality of individual images, the system comprising a quadrangular region defining module, 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. 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, a normalizing module, a strip selection module, and a mosaicing module. The motion determining module is configured to determine image motion between two panoramic images.
