A software application was created by the student to perform image stitching. The application can be used to stitch image with overlapping areas. It makes use of SIFT algorithm to detect feature pointes and KD algorithm to identify matches between the images. The program was developed using the C#. The main purpose of this application is to create panorama pictures of images. Through this project, the student also evaluated the functionality of the feature retrieving algorithm, SIFT, as well as the image matching algorithm, KD tree. From the use of the application, images can be stitched to achieve higher resolution and reality images.
