摘要:
A method for identifying a panoramic optical system enables its intrinsic characteristics to be semi-automatically or automatically determined so as to be able to subsequently apply the digital processes for appropriate corrections of the perspectives and distortions specific to the identified panoramic optical system. The panoramic optical system has a marking device visible from outside through a front lens, allowing identification by an operator, and/or a marking device directly projected on the image plane through the optical system, for automatic identification and calibration.
摘要:
There is provided an imaging system for producing an image of a scene, the image having at least one distorted zone, the imaging system comprising image producing means for producing an image of the scene; optical means for orienting light from the scene towards the image producing means, the optical means having a base optical power, the optical means being configurable to form at least one modified portion, each one of the at least one modified portion having a modified optical power different from the base optical power to thereby create at least one distorted zone on the image; and control means operatively connected to the optical means for changing the configuration of the optical means for forming the at least one modified portion. The imaging system may be reversible and provided instead as a scanning system.
