Abstract
Embodiments relate to circuitry for warping image pyramids for image fusion. An image fusion circuit receives captured images, and generates image pyramids corresponding to the received images to be used for image fusion. A warping circuit warps the first image pyramid based upon one or more warping parameters to align the first image pyramid to the second image pyramid. The warping circuit is a multi-scale warping circuit configured to warp each level of the first image pyramid, using a first warping engine that warps a base level of the image pyramid, and at least one addition warping engine that warps a plurality of scaled levels of the image pyramid in parallel with the first warping engine.
