摘要： A method and system for the creation and viewing of stereoscopic immersive images. By creating two immersive images from an offset camera platform (120), the illusion of depth can be provided by left and right view in the form of an interactive panoramic image. By capturing two immersive images on a fixture (110) with horizontal separation of the centers of each immersive image, each constructed from a sequence of fisheye images that are captured in a constant direction and seamed together, two files (294, 298) that can be used to produce a stereoscopic display are created. The resulting files can be displayed using any number of stereoscopic displays (440) including dual monitors, one for each eye, or shuttered displays for each eye from a single monitor, or displays with polarized filters directing separate views to each eye.

摘要： Computer software (150) and an associated digital camera system (100) for capturing digital wide angle such as hemispherical images, for processing two or more wide angle or hemispherical images to seam the wide angle or hemispherical images together to form a spherical image, for linking sound data files (105), location data (110), time and date data (100b) and horizontal reference data to the captured image data, for selecting for display (175) or for printing (165) undistorted portions of the spherical images (170), for posting the spherical images to a web site (160) or transmitting the spherical images via the Internet (155), for time and date stamping (100b) digital wide angle images as they are captured along with horizontal reference data, location data, for example, from the global positioning system (110), and environmental data.
