Abstract

We propose an interpolation method considering barrel distortion of fisheye lens using nearest pixels on a corrected image. The correction of barrel distortion comprises coordinate transformation and interpolation. This paper focuses on interpolation. The proposed interpolation method uses nearest four coordinates on a corrected image rather than on a distorted image unlike existing techniques. Experimental results show that both subjective and objective image qualities are improved.

본 논문에서는 어안렌즈의 방사왜곡을 고려한 개선된 양선형 보간법을 제안한다. 어안렌즈에서 발생하는 방사왜곡의 보정은 크게 좌표 변환과 보간 작업의 두 단계를 통해 진행된다. 본 논문은 방사왜곡을 고려한 보간법에 대한 연구이다. 기존 기술과 달리 왜곡 영상이 아닌 보정 영상에서 근접한 좌표 4개를 사용한 보간법을 제안한다. 실험결과는 주관적인 화질과 객관적인 화질(PSNR)이 향상되는 것을 보여준다.
