Abstract

We present a new framework for the acquisition of full spherical videos using a high-speed rotating linear or area sensor equipped with a fish-eye lens. The high capture rate of the sensors allows us to reach high frame rates on the resulting videos. We describe the image processing workflows from the raw data to the full spherical frames, and we show experimental results of non-parallax panoramic videos covering the complete field of view.
