Design Analysis of a High-Resolution Panoramic Camera Using Conventional Imagers and a Mirror Pyramid

by Hong Hua, Narendra Ahuja, Chunyu Gao, Student Member
"... Abstract—Wide field of view (FOV) and high-resolution image acquisition is highly desirable in many vision-based applications. Several systems have reported the use of reflections off mirror pyramids to capture high-resolution, single-viewpoint, and wide-FOV images. Using a dual mirror pyramid (DMP) ..."

Multiview panoramic cameras using mirror pyramids

by Hong Hua, Ieee Computer Society, Narendra Ahuja - IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence , 2004
"... Abstract—A mirror pyramid consists of a set of planar mirror faces arranged around an axis of symmetry and inclined to form a pyramid. By strategically positioning a number of conventional cameras around a mirror pyramid, the viewpoints of the cameras ’ mirror images can be located at a single point ..."

point within the pyramid and their optical axes pointed in different directions to effectively form a virtual camera with a panoramic field of view. Mirror pyramid-based panoramic cameras have a number of attractive properties, including single-viewpoint imaging, high resolution, and video rate capture

A High-Resolution Panoramic Camera

by Hong Hua, Narendra Ahuja
"... Wide field of view (FOV) and high resolution are two desirable properties in many vision-based applications such as tele-conferencing, surveillance, and robot navigation. In some applications such as 30 reconstruction and rendering, it is also desired that all viewing directions share a single viewp ..."

In this paper, we review such a panoramic camera proposed by NaIwa in 1996 that uses reflections off planar mirrors to achieve the jirst four of the uforementioned capabilities. He uses a single mirror pyramid

Central Panoramic Cameras: Design and Geometry

by Tomás Svoboda, Tomás Pajdla , 1998
"... This contribution gives the foundations of the useful panoramic cameras for stereo vision. The approach to a perspective camera-hyperbolic mirror system design is presented. The model of image formation by a central panoramic camera is defined. The analysis of epipolar geometry for panoramic cameras ..."

A theory of catadioptric image formation

by Simon Baker, Shree K. Nayar , 1997
"... Conventional video cameras have limited elds of view which make them restrictive for certain applications in computational vision. A catadioptric sensor uses a combination of lenses and mirrors placed in a carefully arranged con guration to capture a much wider eld of view. When designing a catadiop ..."

Cata-Fisheye Camera for Panoramic Imaging

by Gurunandan Krishnan, Shree K. Nayar
"... We present a novel panoramic imaging system which uses a curved mirror as a simple optical attachment to a fisheye lens. When compared to existing panoramic cameras, our “cata-fisheye ” camera has a simple, compact and inexpensive design, and yet yields high optical performance. It captures the desi ..."

Panoramic 3D Reconstruction Using Rotating Camera with Planar Mirrors

by Jiang Wei, Shigeki Sugimoto, Masatoshi Okutomi
"... In this paper, we propose a novel approach for obtaining 3D information of panoramic (360 degrees) environments. We design an image acquisition rig composed with a camera and two planar mirrors. The regular image captured by the camera is separated into uncontinuous three regions by the mirrors arra ..."

Panoramic cameras for 3D computation

by Tomas Svoboda , 2000
"... In this paper, we review design and principles of existing panoramic cameras. Panoramic cameras which enable 3D computation in reasonable time for real time applications are emphasized. We classify panoramic cameras w.r.t. their construction, field of view, and existence of a single projective cente ..."

Analysis and design of panoramic stereo vision using equi-angular pixel cameras

by Mark Ollis, Herman Herman, Sanjiv Singh , 1999
"... In this report we discuss methods to perform stereo vision using a novel configuration of devices that allow imaging of a very wide field of view (full 360 degrees in the azimuth and up to 120 degrees in elevation). Since the wide field of view produces signficant distortion that varies with viewpoi ..."

In this report we evaluate various configurations of cameras and mirrors that could be used to produce stereo imagery, including one that can use a single camera to produce
