Abstract

The present invention provides a method and a device for image rectification, which is applied to the field of image processing. The method includes: receiving two images, wherein the two images are images of a target object captured at different viewpoints, and an image capturing device configured to capture the two images, includes a first image capturing device and a second image capturing device; determining positions of corresponding feature point pairs in the two images; and aligning the two images according to the positions of the feature point pairs and parameters of the first image capturing device and the second image capturing device. The above-mentioned method can rectify the images captured at different viewpoints, thereby ensuring the alignment of pixels, and avoiding visual discomfort of the viewer.
