Generation of Panoramic View from 360 Degree Fisheye Images Based on Angular Fisheye Projection

This paper proposes a algorithm to generate the panoramic view from 360° fisheye images based on angular fisheye projection model. Firstly, the image plane will be mapped to the view plane, the sphere plane, to obtain the coordinates of spherical points. Then use the angular fisheye projection model to get fisheye images' radius. Secondly, calculate the coordinates of fisheye images' points with the radius of fisheye images and the coordinates of spherical points. Finally, map the points of fisheye images to the target plane by the way of backward mapping. Experiments show that this algorithm is simple and fast, and can obtain the ideal images.
