Claim One:
1. A method of parallax tolerant video stitching, the method comprising: determining a plurality of video sequences to be stitched together; performing a spatial-temporal localized warping computation process on the video sequences to determine a plurality of target warping maps, wherein the spatial-temporal localized warping computation process comprises: determining a plurality of spatial global homographies and a plurality of temporal global homographies using a plurality of visual keypoints associated with the video sequences; performing a pre-warping process, using the spatial global homographies and the temporal global homographies, to obtain a plurality of pre-warped temporal matching pairs and a plurality of pre-warped spatial matching pairs; and determining a plurality of target vertices using the pre-warped temporal matching pairs and the pre-warped spatial matching pairs; warping a plurality of frames among the video sequences into a plurality of target virtual frames using the target warping maps; performing a spatial-temporal content-based seam finding process on the target virtual frames to determine a plurality of target seam maps; and stitching the video sequences together using the target seam maps.
