1 Introduction
Wide-angle images have been wisely used in many areas since they
can provide much larger field-of-view (FOV) of a scene. But distortions
in these images disturb users’ perception and many research
works have been investigated to tackle this problem. Up to now,
several correction methods have been developed, such as the perspective,
Mercator and stereographic projections. However, these
methods tend to bend straight lines or distort the shapes of objects,
and [Zorin and Barr 1995] pointed out that no global projection
can preserve both straight lines and the shapes of objects. Recently,
[Carroll et al. 2009] proposed a content-preserving approach
to map wide-angle photographs onto image plane by computing a
spatially-varying projection. Unfortunately, it required the users to
draw about 20 lines on average as an initial step.
In this paper, we present an ellipsoid-based correction method, aiming
to minimize distortions in wide-angle images. Although it may
not reach the optimal result in some cases, the flexibility of our
method makes it a useful tool in practice. |
