Abstract
A display device has means for controlling display of a blended image obtained by mapping a structure in a first image onto its corresponding structure in a second image by applying a geometric transformation to the first image so that the transformed first image and the second image are expressed in a common coordinate system. Starting from initial values the parameters of the geometric transformation are updated taking into account the result of an evaluation of a cost function. The superimposed images are blended.
Claims4
A display device comprising blending control means for controlling display of a blended image, each pixel value of said blended image being a combination of a pixel value in a first image and a corresponding pixel value in a transformed second image, wherein said transformed second image is obtained by applying a geometric transform to a second image which geometric transformation maps a geometric structure in said second image onto a corresponding geometric structure in said first image in a common coordinate system.
