AutoStitch: a new dimension in automatic image stitching
 

What if your camera could see everything you can see?

The human visual system has a field of view of around 135 x 200 degrees, but a typical camera has a field of view of only 35 x 50 degrees. Panoramic image mosaicing works by taking lots of pictures from an ordinary camera, and stitching them together to form a composite image with a much larger field of view.

AutoStitch takes a step forward in panoramic image stitching by automatically recognising matching images. This allows entire panoramas to be constructed with no user input whatsoever. AutoStitch is incredibly simple to use! Just select a set of photos, and AutoStitch does the rest: digital photos in, panoramas out.

Mobile versions are no longer available, sorry! Please try the free demo instead

Download the free demo version Windows • Mac OSX

For 32-bit Windows users here is the older Win32 demo version.

For more advanced stitching capabilities, you may wish to try: Autopano pro, Serif PanoramaPlus, or Calico

The AutoStitch Process

AutoStitch works from unordered collections of images, automatically finding matches between images using the SIFT algorithm. It then robustly aligns all images and uses advanced blending algorithms to form seamless panoramas (see below). For more details, see our research papers.

FAQ

Q: How do I get AutoStitch to stitch the panorama fullsize?

A:Go to Settings or Edit->Options and set Output Size to 100%. Then select Play or Stitch->Start.

Q: What projection method does AutoStitch use? Does it support full view panoramas?

A:The demo version of AutoStitch uses spherical projection and is capable of stitching full view 360 x 180 degree panoramas (everything visible from a point). Cylindrical and planar projections are not supported in the demo version.

Q: Why doesn't AutoStitch recognise multiple panoramas?

A:This feature is disabled in the demo version

Q: Does AutoStitch support planar stitching, such as flatbed scans or aerial photographs?

A:The demo version of AutoStitch assumes that the camera is rotating about a point, so distortions will be visible when stitching multiple views of a planar surface.
