SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMAGE CAPTURE

Images subject to panoramic image stitching are analyzed for suitability in three dimensional construction. Effects of translation changes between cameras are mitigated. The dioptric relationship of subject content of the images to the camera set identifies camera translation changes, and eligible camera position inputs, permissible to avoid parallax errors. Images within permissible ranges of each other are stitched to create panoramic images of subject content that a camera cannot fully capture with a single image. Registration plane selection based on translation distances between cameras, and permissible translation changes based on detected subject content depth are disclosed.
