    摘要: A method and apparatus are disclosed for accomplishing in-camera stitching of a high-resolution panoramic photograph from a set of component photographs while providing a satisfactory user experience. A low-resolution panorama is stitched, and a user of the camera performs a review of the low-resolution panorama using a display comprised in the camera. During the review, a high-resolution panoramic photograph is stitched by the camera in a background process.

    摘要: A camera and related methodology in which a stitched panoramic image may be generated from a series of individual image frames onboard the camera and displayed on the camera display in a “real-time” environment. This allows the user to preview the completed panorama on the camera without the need to first upload the image frames onto a support computer. In this manner, the user is able to identify potential problems with the panorama and, if necessary, reacquire the individual image frames. In order to reduce the amount of onboard processor power and/or memory required, stitching may be performed on relatively lower resolution image frame files within the camera. When the preview indicates that image data for the panorama has been successfully acquired, then the full resolution image data may be uploaded to a support computer for processing.
