Panorama Viewer

The application

An application for viewing panoramas was created by Daniel Martin Marin. The application allows to view panoramas, which have been aligned with Hugin (https://hugin.sourceforge.net/) before. The application makes use of OpenGL (https://www.mesa3d.org/) and therefore can exploit 3D acceleration provided by modern graphic cards to transform and display the images.

You can download the report (https://vision.eng.shu.ac.uk/jan/report_marin.pdf) here. The source code of the software is available under the terms and conditions of the GPL (https://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html). You can download it here: panorama.tar.gz (74 kByte) (https://vision.eng.shu.ac.uk/jan/panorama.tar.gz).

Todo

  • Hugin's parameters for camera distortion are not supported yet.
  • Support for different types of projections.

Landscape for Stellarium

Stellarium (https://www.stellarium.org/) is a free and open source planetarium software with an emphasis on photorealism. Stellarium allows you to define custom landscapes. The software accepts different types of panorama images. For real-time display the panorama is converted to a sphere consisting of textured polygones. This object can be rendered in real-time using hardware acceleration provided by modern graphics cards.
