  • Panoramas Shoot with the Camera Positioned Vertically As This Will Give the Photo Merging Software More Wriggle-Room in Merging the Images
    P a n o r a m a s What is a Panorama? A panoramic photo covers a larger field of view than a “normal” photograph. In general if the aspect ratio is 2 to 1 or greater then it’s classified as a panoramic photo. This sample is about 3 times wider than tall, an aspect ratio of 3 to 1. What is a Panorama? A panorama is not limited to horizontal shots only. Vertical images are also an option. How is a Panorama Made? Panoramic photos are created by taking a series of overlapping photos and merging them together using software. Why Not Just Crop a Photo? • Making a panorama by cropping deletes a lot of data from the image. • That’s not a problem if you are just going to view it in a small format or at a low resolution. • However, if you want to print the image in a large format the loss of data will limit the size and quality that can be made. Get a Really Wide Angle Lens? • A wide-angle lens still may not be wide enough to capture the whole scene in a single shot. Sometime you just can’t get back far enough. • Photos taken with a wide-angle lens can exhibit undesirable lens distortion. • Lens cost, an auto focus 14mm f/2.8 lens can set you back $1,800 plus. What Lens to Use? • A standard lens works very well for taking panoramic photos. • You get minimal lens distortion, resulting in more realistic panoramic photos. • Choose a lens or focal length on a zoom lens of between 35mm and 80mm.

  • A Stitching Algorithm for Automated Surface Inspection of Rotationally Symmetric Components
    A Stitching Algorithm for Automated Surface Inspection of Rotationally Symmetric Components Tobias Schlagenhauf1, Tim Brander1, Jürgen Fleischer1 1Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) wbk-Institute of Production Science Kaiserstraße 12, 76131 Karlsruhe, Germany Abstract This paper provides a novel approach to stitching surface images of rotationally symmetric parts. It presents a process pipeline that uses a feature-based stitching approach to create a distortion-free and true-to-life image from a video file. The developed process thus enables, for example, condition monitoring without having to view many individual images. For validation purposes, this will be demonstrated in the paper using the concrete example of a worn ball screw drive spindle. The developed algorithm aims at reproducing the functional principle of a line scan camera system, whereby the physical measuring systems are replaced by a feature-based approach. For evaluation of the stitching algorithms, metrics are used, some of which have only been developed in this work or have been supplemented by test procedures already in use. The applicability of the developed algorithm is not only limited to machine tool spindles. Instead, the developed method allows a general approach to the surface inspection of various rotationally symmetric components and can therefore be used in a variety of industrial applications. Deep-learning-based detection Algorithms can easily be implemented to generate a complete pipeline for failure detection and condition monitoring on rotationally symmetric parts. Keywords Image Stitching, Video Stitching, Condition Monitoring, Rotationally Symmetric Components 1. Introduction The remainder of the paper is structured as follows. Section 2 reviews the current state of the art in the field of stitching.

  • Fast Vignetting Correction and Color Matching for Panoramic Image Stitching
    FAST VIGNETTING CORRECTION AND COLOR MATCHING FOR PANORAMIC IMAGE STITCHING Colin Doutre and Panos Nasiopoulos Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering The University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada ABSTRACT When images are stitched together to form a panorama there is often color mismatch between the source images due to vignetting and differences in exposure and white balance between images. In this paper a low complexity method is proposed to correct vignetting and differences in color Fig. 1. Two images showing severe color mismatch aligned with no between images, producing panoramas that look consistent blending (left) and multi-band blending [1] (right) across all source images. Unlike most previous methods To compensate for brightness/color differences between which require complex non-linear optimization to solve for images in panoramas, several techniques have been correction parameters, our method requires only linear proposed [1],[6]-[9]. The simplest of these is to multiply regressions with a low number of parameters, resulting in a each image by a scaling factor [1]. A simple scaling can fast, computationally efficient method. Experimental results somewhat correct exposure differences, but cannot correct show the proposed method effectively removes vignetting for vignetting, so a number of more sophisticated techniques effects and produces images that are highly visually have been developed. consistent in color and brightness. A common camera model is used in most previous work on vignetting and exposure correction for panoramas [6]-[9].

  • Video Stitching for Linear Camera Arrays 1
    LAI ET AL.: VIDEO STITCHING FOR LINEAR CAMERA ARRAYS 1 Video Stitching for Linear Camera Arrays Wei-Sheng Lai1;2 1 University of California, Merced [email protected] 2 NVIDIA Orazio Gallo2 [email protected] Jinwei Gu2 [email protected] Deqing Sun2 [email protected] Ming-Hsuan Yang1 [email protected] Jan Kautz2 [email protected] Abstract Despite the long history of image and video stitching research, existing academic and commercial solutions still produce strong artifacts. In this work, we propose a wide- baseline video stitching algorithm for linear camera arrays that is temporally stable and tolerant to strong parallax. Our key insight is that stitching can be cast as a problem of learning a smooth spatial interpolation between the input videos. To solve this prob- lem, inspired by pushbroom cameras, we introduce a fast pushbroom interpolation layer and propose a novel pushbroom stitching network, which learns a dense flow field to smoothly align the multiple input videos for spatial interpolation. Our approach out- performs the state-of-the-art by a significant margin, as we show with a user study, and has immediate applications in many areas such as virtual reality, immersive telepresence, arXiv:1907.13622v1 [cs.CV] 31 Jul 2019 autonomous driving, and video surveillance. c 2019.
