The present invention provides a method for image recombination of a plurality of images and image identification and a system for image acquiring and identification. Features with respect to the plurality of images are recombined and enhanced so as to form a recombined image. After that, the recombined image is processed to emphasize the features of the recombined image so that the recombined image is capable of being identified easily. Furthermore, the present provides a system to perform the foregoing method, whereby reducing unidentified problems caused due to low quality image of the monitoring system.

A capturing method for a plurality of images with different view-angles and a capturing system using the same are provided. The capturing method for the images with different view-angles includes the following steps. An appearance image of an object is captured by an image capturing unit at a capturing angle. A light reflection area of the appearance image is detected by a detecting unit, and a dimension characteristic of the light reflection area is analyzed by the same. Whether the dimension characteristic of the light reflection area is larger than a first predetermined value is determined. If the dimension characteristic of the light reflection area is larger than the first predetermined value, then the capturing angle is adjusted within a first adjusting range. After the step of adjusting the capturing angle within a first adjusting range is performed, the step of capturing the appearance image is performed again.

The present invention provides a method and system for image identification and identification result output, wherein a feature image under identification acquired from an image is compared with a plurality of sample images respectively stored in a database so as to obtain a plurality of similarity indexes associated with the plurality of sample images respectively. Each similarity index represents similarity between the feature image and the corresponding sample image. Thereafter, the plurality of similarity indexes are sorted and then a least one of comparison results is output. The present invention is further capable of being used for identifying identification marks with respect to a carrier. By sorting the similarity index with respect to each feature forming the identification marks, it is capable of outputting many sets of combinations corresponding to the identification marks so as to improve speed for targeting suspected carrier and enhance the identification efficiency.
