Abstract
It is provided a method implemented by an electronic device for image mosaicing. The method comprises providing a mosaic and an image, wherein the mosaic and the image each represent at least part of a scene. The method also comprises estimating a motion of blocks of the image, wherein the motion of a given block of a given image represents how the scene content of the given block has moved during a time interval before taking the given image. The method then comprises integrating part of the image to the mosaic according to the estimation. Such a method improves the way of performing image mosaicing.
