    Abstract: A system and method for fisheye image processing is disclosed. A particular embodiment can be configured to: receive fisheye image data from at least one fisheye lens camera associated with an autonomous vehicle, the fisheye image data representing at least one fisheye image frame; partition the fisheye image frame into a plurality of image portions representing portions of the fisheye image frame; warp each of the plurality of image portions to map an arc of a camera projected view into a line corresponding to a mapped target view, the mapped target view being generally orthogonal to a line between a camera center and a center of the arc of the camera projected view; combine the plurality of warped image portions to form a combined resulting fisheye image data set representing recovered or distortion-reduced fisheye image data corresponding to the fisheye image frame; generate auto-calibration data representing a correspondence between pixels in the at least one fisheye image frame and corresponding pixels in the combined resulting fisheye image data set; and provide the combined resulting fisheye image data set as an output for other autonomous vehicle subsystems.
