Abstract
A method for constructing a composite image comprises determining in an alignment between at least a first and a second image based on the content of the first and second image frames, and combining in a transform domain at least the first and second images with the determined alignment to form a composite image.
Claims61
A method for constructing a composite image, the method comprising:
- determining in an alignment between at least a first and a second image based on the content of the first and second image frames;
- and
- combining in a transform domain at least the first and second images with the determined alignment to form a composite image.
A system for constructing a composite image comprising:
- a camera to capture a series of image frames in an image domain;
- a storage unit for storing image frames from the series of image frames in a transform domain;
- and
- a control unit for generating in a transform domain a composite image from the image frames stored based on a defined alignment between the image frames.

A method for displaying a panoramic image at different zoom levels, the method comprising:
- determining a region in a panoramic image to be displayed in zoom-in mode;
- selecting an image frame from a plurality of image frames used in constructing the panoramic image when the zoom-in level is above a defined threshold;
- and
- applying zoom-in to the corresponding region in the selected image frame.
