Abstract
This study is a study on effective stitching technique for video recorded by using a dual-lens $360^{\circ}$ camera composed of two fisheye lenses. First of all, this study located a problem in the result of stitching by using a bundled program. And the study was carried out, focusing on looking for a stitching technique more efficient and closer to perfect by comparatively analyzing the results of stitching by using Autopano Video Pro and Autopano Giga, professional stitching program. As a result, it was shown that the problems of bundled program were horizontal and vertical distortion, exposure and color mismatch and unsmooth stitching line. And it was possible to solve the problem of the horizontal and vertical by using Automatic Horizon and Verticals Tool of Autopano Video Pro and Autopano Giga, problem of exposure and color by using Levels, Color and Edit Color Anchors and problem of stitching line by using Mask function. Based on this study, it is to be hoped that $360^{\circ}$ VR video content closer to perfect can be produced by efficient stitching technique for video recorded by using dual-lens $360^{\circ}$ camera in the future.
