ABSTRACT:
System for processing digital images includes a system of n fixed real cameras whose individual fields of view merge for recording a panoramic scene. An image construction system simulates a mobile, virtual camera continuously scanning the panoramic scene (Iv) to furnish an arbitrary sub-image, referred to as a digital target image (Iv) constructed from adjacent source images of the real cameras. A luminance equalizing system includes modules which apply correction laws (Gi, Gj), respectively, to the sets (R and F(R)) of the corresponding luminance levels, in portions (Ivi, Ivj) of a digital target image (Iv) constructed from two adjacent digital source images (Ii, Ij) to equalize these corresponding levels in accordance with the relation Gi(R)=Gj[F(R)].
