A system and method for deghosting mosaics provides a novel multiperspective plane sweep approach for generating an image mosaic from a sequence of still images, video images, scanned photographic images, computer generated images, etc. This multiperspective plane sweep approach uses virtual camera positions to compute depth maps for columns of overlapping pixels in adjacent images. Object distortions and ghosting caused by image parallax when generating the image mosaics are then minimized by blending pixel colors, or grey values, for each computed depth to create a common composite area for each of the overlapping images. Further, the multiperspective plane sweep approach described herein is both computationally efficient, and applicable to both the case of limited overlap between the images used for creating the image mosaics, and to the case of extensive or increased image overlap.
