A super-resolution-enhanced mosaic image generating system is provided for
generating a super-resolution-enhanced mosaic image from a plurality of
image frames, each image frame being associated with image data
representative of an image of a portion of a scene. The mosaic image
generating system comprises a mosaic image generator and a
super-resolution generator. The mosaic image generator uses the image data
from the image frames to generate mosaic image data representing a mosaic
image. The super-resolution generator uses the mosaic image data and the
image data from the image frames to generate the super-resolution-enhanced
mosaic image. In that process, the super-resolution generator divides the
mosaic image into a plurality of patches, each patch associated with at
least one image frame, and performs a super-resolution operation in
connection with the patch and image frames associated therewith to
generate the super-resolution-enhanced mosaic image.
