Method and system for performing adaptive image acquisition
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method of performing adaptive image acquisition comprising:
- capturing images from at least one sensor, where the at least one sensor produces a higher resolution image and a lower resolution image; and
using at least one microprocessor for;
registering the images from the at least one sensor;
creating a virtual view of a scene imaged by the at least one imaging sensor using the registered images; and
enabling a user to indirectly control the at least one imaging sensor while viewing the virtual view.

Abstract
An adaptive image acquisition system and method that generates virtual view of a surveillance scene to a user (operator), in which, the user operates the system. Through viewing the virtual view, the user controls sensors that create the virtual view. The sensors comprise at least one first sensor having a higher resolution than at least one second sensor. Images from the second sensor are processed to create an image mosaic that is overlaid with images from the higher resolution first sensor. In one embodiment of the invention, the first sensor is moved using Saccade motion. In another embodiment of the invention, a user'"'"'s intent is used to control the Saccade motion.
