Image Panorama Stitching

Requirements

• Python 3
• python-opencv-contrib <= 4.2.1.16

Note

SIFT is no longer available in opencv > 3.4.2.16, you should choose older versions of opencv-python and opencv-contrib-python, the issue can be solved by using the following command lines:

python -m pip install opencv-python==3.4.2.16
python -m pip install opencv-contrib-python==3.4.2.16

Or just execute:

python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

1. 2 Images Only (panorama.py)

The application can be run by executing:

python panorama.py "left_image_path" "right_image_path"

python panorama.py images/left.jpg images/right.jpg

2. Multiple Images (multi_image_pano.py: >= 2 images)

The application can be run by executing:

python multi_image_pano.py --images "folder-containing-images-path" --output "output-file"

Example:

python multi_image_pano.py --images images/3_images --output 3_img_pano.jpg
