Preliminary experiments in multi-view video stitching

We address the problem of stitching together the three videos acquired by a special rig consisting of three high resolution cameras. The three cameras are placed in the horizontal plane on the top of the service vehicle in a way that the fields of view of the lateral cameras overlap with the field of view of the middle camera. In the presented approach, the transformations between the common parts of the corresponding video frames are approximated by planar projective mappings. The required mappings are estimated by aligning the common parts of the three views in corresponding video frames. The experiments have been performed on production EuroRAP videos provided by our industrial partner. The obtained results confirm that the presented approach would simplify the existing road inspection procedures relying on the recorded multi-view video.
