Abstract
Method for producing an image from a vehicle, comprising the steps of: mounting a first camera on the vehicle, the first camera having a field of view; mounting a second camera on the vehicle and on a predetermined position relative to the first camera, the second camera having a field of view; acquiring a first image with the first camera; acquiring a second image with the second camera after the first image has been acquired when the position of the second camera is sufficiently close to or even coincides with the position from which the first image was taken, whereby the field of view of the second camera partially overlaps the field of view of the first camera when the first image was taken; and generating an image by stitching the first image and the second image together.
