초록

본 논문에서는 변수화된 영상 보정을 통한 전방향 영상 (Omni-directional image) 생성 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 모든 방향의 영상을 포함하고 영상 합성 시에 발생하는 왜곡과 에러를 최소화하는 전방향 영상을 생성하기 위해, 원형 좌표계를 기반으로 평면 영상을 원형 영상으로 변환한다. 카메라로 획득한 각각의 영상은 카메라의 시스템과 외부 환경 조건에 따라 발생하는 비그네이팅 효과와 조명 변화를 포함하고 있으므로, 최적의 비그네이팅 및 조명 변수를 추출하여 자연스러운 전방향 영상 생성을 위한 영상 보정 과정을 수행한다. 실험 결과에서는 제안한 방법에 따라 생성된 전방향 영상을 확인하고 비그네이팅 효과 및 조명 변화를 고려하지 않은 방법과 제안한 방법의 성능을 비교, 분석하여 제안한 방법이 $1{\sim}4dB$ 정도 더 효과적임을 보인다.

This paper proposes an omni-directional image generation algorithm with parametric image compensation. The algorithm generates an omni-directional image by transforming each planar image to the spherical image on spherical coordinate. Parametric image compensation method is presented in order to compensate vignetting and illumination distortions caused by properties of a camera system and lighting condition. The proposed algorithm can generates realistic and seamless omni-directional video and synthesize any point of view from the stitched omni-directional image on the spherical image. Experimental results show that the proposed omni-directional system with vignetting and illumination compensation is approximately $1{\sim}4dB$ better than that which does not consider the said effects.
