Abstract:
A system captures a first hemispherical image and a second hemispherical image, each hemispherical image including an overlap portion, the overlap potions capturing a same field of view, the two hemispherical images collectively comprising a spherical FOV and separated along a longitudinal plane. The system maps a modified first hemispherical image to a first portion of the 2D projection of a cubic image, the modified first hemispherical image including a non-overlap portion of the first hemispherical image, and maps a modified second hemispherical image to a second portion of the 2D projection of the cubic image, the modified second hemispherical image also including a non-overlap portion. The system maps the overlap portions of the first hemispherical image and the second hemispherical image to the 2D projection of the cubic image, and encodes the 2D projection of the cubic image to generate an encoded image representative of the spherical FOV.

Claim (Index 28):
A computer readable apparatus comprising a storage medium adapted to store a computer program thereon, the computer program which, when executed, is configured to:\n retrieve a first hyper-hemispherical image and a second hyper-hemispherical image, each of the first hyper-hemispherical image and the second hyper-hemispherical image comprising an overlap portion, the overlap portions capturing a same area within a spherical field of view (FOV); modify the first hyper-hemispherical image, the modification comprising removal of the overlap portion of the first hyper-hemispherical image, the modification of the first hyper-hemispherical image resulting in a modified first hemispherical image; modify the second hyper-hemispherical image, the modification comprising removing the overlap portion of the second hyper-hemispherical image, the modification of the second hyper-hemispherical image resulting in a modified second hemispherical image; map a first portion of the modified first hemispherical image into first, second and third facets of a two-dimensional projection of a cubic representation, the first, the second and the third facets of the two-dimensional projection of the cubic representation defining a first extent of contiguous space within the spherical FOV; map a first portion of the modified second hemispherical image into the first, the second and the third facets of the two-dimensional projection of the cubic representation; map a first portion of the overlap portions into the first, the second and the third facets of the two-dimensional projection of the cubic representation; and encode the two-dimensional projection of the cubic representation to generate an encoded image representative of the spherical FOV.
