Video Stitching with Localized 360° Model for Intelligent Car Parking Monitoring and Assistance System

Exploring the new avenues in the domain of video surveillance is a key aspect to maintain a secure environment by enabling several monitoring and security systems having ranges from home solution to border surveillance. Combining multiple cameras view to integrate one large view is far better than looking at each view individually. Car parking is a critical and time-consuming issue in congested cities. This study proposed a model to monitor and assist for car parking by stitching multiple videos and creating a 360 degree localized view. A complete model is proposed and steps are defined for each module including video acquisition, stitching and 360 degrees localized view. A single view is created from all individual cameras. When a car enters into a parking area, the driver is to be guided towards free slot by proposed monitoring and assistance system.
