Abstract
A computer-implemented method for a multiple imager imaging system is disclosed. The method comprises detecting misalignment between a left portion of an object in a left image and a right portion of said object in a right image; wherein said misalignment is detected using factory alignment parameters to align said left and right portions; and selectively performing a recalibration operation to determine optimal alignment parameters to align said left and right portions during an image stitching operation; dynamically overriding the factory alignment parameters with the optimal alignment parameters; and performing the stitching operation based on the optimal alignment parameters.
