  Abstract

Image stitching technology, that connects multiple photographs and videos into one image or video, has been widely used in criminal investigation, securing a field of view, location recognition, and even in tourism and sports. Adjusting the features such as resolution and framerate from different images is an important factor in enhancing the completeness of the stitched image. It is difficult to apply the existing stitching algorithm directly to the various kinds of images that have different features. In this paper, three main schemes are devised to create the stitched image properly and to secure the identity and continuity of the object inside the images. First, new frames are created according to the average pixel value of adjacent frames, to adjust the different framerates. And, new resolution is derived regarding the average value of different resolutions. To verity this, the well-known object tracking framework has been applied to the stitched image so that the identity and continuity of the object from different images is secured. Experimental Results show that the stitching method with the proposed schemes works properly, in various images with different features. Also, objects in different images are clearly secured as identical.
