Building mosaics from video using MPEG motion vectors

In this paper we present a novel way of creating mosaics from an MPEG video sequence. Two original aspects of our work are that (1) we explicitly compute camera motion between frames and (2) we deduce the camera motion directly from the motion vectors encoded in the MPEG video stream. This enables us to create mosaics more simply and quickly than with other methods.
