Abstract
Disclosed are methods and systems for merging of one or more objects from various images into a single image. An example method of combining images comprises obtaining a reference image and obtaining at least one further image. The reference image and the further image have a substantially common background. The further image also includes at least one object such as an individual. The method also includes analyzing the reference image to determine positions of the object for having the object correctly placed in a combined image. Next, the images can be seamlessly merged into a combined image by placing the object from the further image into the reference image according the determined positions. Thereafter, digital filters and beautification techniques can be applied to the combined image.
