Abstract:
The acquisition of digital image data is not just a single step but actually consists of a whole chain of processing tasks. These have been extensively studied over many years. However, with different types of cameras different specific aspects of processing become important. For a panoramic camera setup, specific challenges as well as opportunities derive from the extremely wide angle of view. We present an integrated signal processing chain that mosaics 6 planar simultaneously acquired images into a cubic panorama. Challenges that are unique to omnidirectional imaging are addressed in order to maximize the obtained visual quality with respect to dynamic range, color reproduction, and spatial resolution.
