Abstract: Panorama development is the basically method of integrating multiple images captured of the same scene under consideration to get high resolution image. This process is useful for combining multiple images which are overlapped to obtain larger image. Usefulness of Image stitching is found in the field related to medical imaging, data from satellites, computer vision and automatic target recognition in military applications. The goal objective of this research paper is basically for developing an high improved resolution and its quality panorama having with high accuracy and minimum computation time. Initially we compared different image feature detectors and tested SIFT, SURF, ORB to find out the rate of detection of the corrected available key points along with processing time. Later on, testing is done with some common techniques of image blending or fusion for improving the mosaicing quality process. In this experimental results, it has been found out that ORB image feature detection and description algorithm is more accurate, fastest which gives a higher performance and Pyramid blending method gives the better stitching quality. Lastly panorama is developed based on combination of ORB binary descriptor method for finding out image features and pyramid blending method.
