  Traditional image stitching focuses on a single panorama frame without
considering the spatial-temporal consistency in videos. The straightforward
image stitching approach will cause temporal flicking and color inconstancy
when it is applied to the video stitching task. Besides, inaccurate camera
parameters will cause artifacts in the image warping. In this paper, we propose
a real-time system to stitch multiple video sequences into a panoramic video,
which is based on GPU accelerated color correction and frame warping without
accurate camera parameters. We extend the traditional 2D-Matrix (2D-M) color
correction approach and a present spatio-temporal 3D-Matrix (3D-M) color
correction method for the overlap local regions with online color balancing
using a piecewise function on global frames. Furthermore, we use pairwise
homography matrices given by coarse camera calibration for global warping
followed by accurate local warping based on the optical flow. Experimental
results show that our system can generate highquality panorama videos in real
time.
