Abstract
A method for mosaicing frames from a video sequence is disclosed. Each frame is constituted by a point cloud, and each point in the point cloud is potentially acquired at a different time. The method involves compensating for motion and motion distortion due to acquisition time differences in each frame, applying a global optimization of inter-frame registration to align consistently the frames, and applying a reconstruction algorithm on the registered frames to construct a mosaic.
