1. A rear-stitched view panorama (RSVP) system comprising:

  • at least one processor; and

    a memory storing software instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the RSVP system tocompute a disparity map for a left center rear image and a right center rear image, the left center rear image and the right center rear image captured by a stereo camera mounted on a rear of a vehicle;

    transform a right rear image, a left rear image, a reference center rear image of the left center rear image and the right center rear image, and the disparity map to a virtual world view using virtual camera parameters, the right rear image captured by a right camera mounted on a right side of the vehicle and the left rear image captured by a left camera mounted on a left side of the vehicle;

    compute an optimal left seam between the transformed left rear image and the transformed reference center rear image based on the transformed disparity map;

    compute an optimal right seam between the transformed right rear image and the transformed reference center rear image based on the transformed disparity map; and

    stitch the transformed left rear image and the transformed reference center rear image based on the optimal left seam and the transformed right rear image and the transformed reference center rear image based on the optimal right seam to generate a panorama.
