Abstract: The present invention provides a method for transforming a wide-angle image to a map projection image that includes the steps of: capturing a wide-angle image; choosing an azimuthal coordinate model and introducing the wide-angle image into the chosen azimuthal coordinate model to obtain an azimuthal image; and generating a compensation image by using the azimuthal image to generate the map projection image. The present invention also provides a method for transforming a wide-angle image to a perspective projection image that includes the same steps. The present invention facilitates generation of virtual reality images.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to the field of an image system using a pantoscopic lens as an input video image source. In particular, all of the image process steps are in SOC (System on A Chip) without PC. The present invention provides the entire-view video image process method comprising the steps of: (1) start; (2) inputting and processing the information for transforming a pantoscopic image based on hemisphere coordinate to another pantoscopic image based on cylindrical coordinate, and generating a cylindrical projection image; (3) inputting and confirming the information applied to generate a plurality of perspective object images based on cylindrical coordinate, and then generating the plurality of perspective object images; (4) merging the cylindrical projection image and the plurality of perspective object images to become an output video image, and determining the output video image; (5) end.
