Very cool I've been waiting for this part of the writeup. A few years ago I tried to write a similar microscope pano stitcher and used SIFT features in opencv, not sure I had come across template matching. I also struggled with blending and never got anything to work. From the blog's comments I want to check out http://abria.github.io/TeraStitcher/ next time I'm looking to do this. Seeing the final stitch results makes me wonder how accurate the census technique can be, especially against an adversary. Could they just layer a dummy chip on top?
A few years ago, my dad working in chips control quality asked me how to do exactly this but with images from optical microscopes.
I can confirm what the post affirms that panorama stitcher softwares are not able to do the job. But what I found was that the opencv Stitcher class can do this perfectly out of the box. Unfortunately, there was no existing gui for the class at the time, so I quickly made one in 3 days: https://github.com/kwon-young/ImageStitcher
It would have been nice if the post had compared it's approach to the Stitcher class. Maybe the number of images or the size of the final image or the stitching error control cannot be sufficiently controled with the Stitcher class ?
