Problems solved by technology

[0003] There are many existing panoramic image stitching methods, such as installing a camera on a platform that rotates at a constant speed, and taking a group of images at fixed time intervals to stitch the whole picture, so that the stitching effect of photos taken by the same camera is Okay, but the images are not taken at the same time and stitching requires a lot of calculations. This method is not real-time. The application of panoramic images in the future will eventually tend to be video display, and the information provided by still images is limited.

Abstract

A panoramic camera based on image stitching parameter extraction is composed of four fisheye camera lenses fixed on a pedestal. During working, the camera is started, and a first group of fisheye images are shot for distortion removal to obtain a group of corrected images. Feature points of the corrected images are searched by using OpenCV, and matching point pairs between two adjacent corrected images are found; an image whose retention confidence value is higher than a preset threshold value is calculated; parameters such as a homography matrix of the corrected image are calculatd; and finally, the corrected images are aligned on the same horizontal line, the corrected images are projected to a cylindrical surface coordinate system, the corrected images are multiplied by a homography matrix, the corrected images are rotationally spliced, and an overlapped area is optimized to obtain a final image; and the homography matrix is stored. According to the method, a complete splicing process can be carried out on the first group of fisheye images, and the homography matrix of the group of images is directly applied to splicing of subsequent frames after being calculated, so that repeated work is reduced, and real-time performance is enhanced.

Description

【Technical field】: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of image processing, in particular to a panoramic camera based on image splicing parameter extraction and a real-time parameter optimization method thereof. 【Background technique】: [0002] In order to continuously obtain more environmental information, panoramic cameras are used more and more widely, and can be installed in public places such as transportation, communities, airports, etc., and with the development of robot technology, it is also possible to integrate panoramic cameras on robots. Due to the limitations of still images in monitoring, people's requirements for real-time performance are increasing day by day. It is necessary to complete the splicing of each frame of images more quickly and display them in real time in the form of video without additional hardware costs to meet daily needs. production work. [0003] There are many existing panoramic image stitching methods, such as installin...
