Abstract:
1. A method of forming a panoramic image by assembling images according to at least two non-parallel directions, the method being performed by an image processing device, and the method comprising the following steps of: storing first coordinates defining in a two dimensional space, edges of a current panoramic image, superimposing a current image on said current panoramic image for completing the current panoramic image, the current image thus having a first area which is not common with the current panoramic area, storing second coordinates defining in the two dimensional space, edges of the current image superimposed on the current panoramic image, deciding whether the first area should be added to the current panoramic image, based on the first and second stored coordinates, and adding, at least partially, the first area of the current image in the current panoramic image, if it has been decided to add the first area.
