Abstract
The present invention discloses a method of determining a whole-scene image by using multiple image-capturing devices, and the method has two main features including non-contact formation digital image method and the parallax elimination process for captured images. The former feature uses a concyclic fitting calculation to easily determine the locations and orientations of the image-capturing devices, so as to achieve the objective of assisting in capturing the whole-scene image. The latter feature can effectively improve the image quality, so as to effectively solve the problems in conventional technology.
