Abstract

The advancement in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics opens new areas of research into the Pattern Recognition and Computer Vision fields. Image stitching is a task in computer vision whose goal is to create natural-looking mosaics with high resolution and completed view, free of noise that occurs due to camera motion, illumination changes, etc., while being insensitive to the ordering of the input images. This paper introduces an algorithm for automatic image stitching. The automation refers to the determination of the stitching order. Additionally, OpenCV’s seamless stitching method is compared with our newly proposed method for panography stitching, while the automatic arrangement is applied in both cases.
