Description

High-quality precise panoramic imaging system and method based on single lens reflex
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of image processing, and particularly relates to a high-quality precise panoramic imaging system and method based on a single lens reflex.
Background
Traditional image acquisition device realizes the collection of image with single camera lens more, removes single camera lens image acquisition device, obtains the image of each different angle and splices and acquire panoramic image, and such mode is consuming time and is hard, and extremely unstable. With the progress of the technology, a panoramic image acquisition system formed by multiple lenses appears, images in all angle ranges are recorded in a camera surrounding mode, but the image splicing technology after the image acquisition is completed is high in difficulty and poor in precision.
The panoramic camera is divided into a consumer-grade panoramic camera and a commercial-grade panoramic camera, and various panoramic camera products with excellent shooting effects are produced according to different requirements. The consumption-level panoramic camera is suitable for requirements of personal outdoor sport entertainment or news sites, wedding, aerial photography and the like; while commercial grade panoramic cameras are suitable for use in capturing power or other professional grade application scenarios.
The early panoramic camera mostly adopts a scheme of splicing multiple cameras, adopts 6 or more than 6 cameras to shoot in different directions and then splices the cameras. Nowadays, most consumer-grade panoramic cameras adopt 2-4 fisheye cameras for shooting, and pictures obtained by shooting are corrected and spliced, so that panoramic pictures are obtained. Consumer-grade panoramic cameras using a small number of fisheye lens solutions are currently on the market in RICOH Theta series, Insta 360 and Insta 360pro, Bublcam, PHIIMAX 3D, etc. Although the scheme of adopting a small number of fisheye lenses can reduce the cost and improve the portability, the small number of fisheye lenses can cause the distortion of the shot pictures to be serious, the definition to be poor and the resolution of the pictures to be low. In order to meet some specific shooting requirements, professional-level panoramic cameras still adopt a scheme of shooting by a plurality of video cameras, such as OZO of taikoyi, nokia, and series products under Ladybug and Upano flags.
Most panoramic cameras in the market mainly store shot pictures or videos in the cameras, and then import the pictures or videos into computers for processing and viewing, so that the real-time performance is lost. Professional-level panoramic cameras are very expensive, and fewer panoramic cameras capable of realizing a real-time stitching program with lower cost are available, for example, the price of the Ladybug5 panoramic camera is up to 18 ten thousand RMB.
Panoramic cameras generally existing in the market often cannot achieve a balance point between price and performance, consumer-level panoramic cameras are poor in image quality and unstable in file transmission, functions of users are single, secondary development on platforms of the consumer-level panoramic cameras is almost impossible, professional-level panoramic cameras are high in price, ordinary consumers cannot afford the professional-level panoramic cameras, and secondary development capacity is limited.
Most importantly, the panoramic camera products on the market are abundant, and most of the shooting quality basically meets the requirements of users, but the requirements only stay in the aspect of panoramic browsing. If the panoramic technology brings only one browsing effect to us, the limitation of the technology is obvious, and the advantages of the panoramic technology cannot be brought into play. Therefore, it is one of our focuses to explore new usage scenarios for panoramic technology. Through extensive and intensive research, the application range of the panoramic technology added with accurate geometric information is undoubtedly greatly widened, and the panoramic technology can play roles except for a browsing function in multiple fields such as Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), indoor three-dimensional modeling, engineering measurement, automatic driving, target recognition, path planning and the like.
Therefore, it is one of the cores embodied in our patent to give accurate geometric information to the panoramic technology. Under the condition, the imaging quality of the panoramic image has high requirements, the panoramic image strictly meets a photogrammetric model, and meanwhile, the panoramic image has a series of characteristics such as high-quality imaging, multi-scene applicability and the like. From this point of view, the mainstream panoramic imaging system in the market at present cannot meet our high-level requirements. Therefore, through extensive and intensive research and study, we plan to adopt a single lens reflex camera as an image acquisition sensor instead of a common camera. This can maximize the quality of the panoramic image and provide a more open development environment. There is no solution available on the market that can satisfy the synchronous control of multiple cameras.
In summary, the problems of the prior art are as follows:
(1) in the prior art, a panoramic camera cannot achieve a balance point between price and performance;
(2) although the consumer-grade camera is low in cost and good in portability, a small number of fisheye lenses can cause the distortion of a shot picture to be serious, the definition of the shot picture is poor, the resolution of the shot picture is not high, and secondary development is almost impossible;
(3) although professional cameras can solve the problems of picture distortion, poor pixels and low resolution to a certain extent, due to high selling price, the popularization of the professional cameras is limited, and the secondary development capability of the professional cameras is limited.
(4) The functions are single panoramic browsing, and the panoramic technology lacks accurate geometric information, so that the application field is limited;
the difficulty of solving the technical problems is as follows: how to select camera module, fisheye lens, control circuit and main control computer, design corresponding system and optimal combination for under the target of cost is the lowest, imaging is effectual, and the concrete expression is that the distortion is few after the image correction, and pixel resolution is high, and panorama concatenation is effectual, and secondary development ability promotes, and how to increase accurate geometric information makes the multi-scene suitable for.
The significance of solving the technical problems is as follows: under the prerequisite of guaranteeing the distortion of picture minimumization, the pixel is better, the resolution ratio is high, increase API, interfaces such as SDK and hardware IO provide the secondary development ability that improves the system, furthest reduces the cost of this professional panoramic camera, make the popularization of professional panorama become easy, promote the combination and the development of professional panoramic camera in alternately professional field, and increase the application scope of the panoramic technique of accurate geometric information and widen greatly undoubtedly, can be at Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), indoor three-dimensional modeling, engineering survey, automatic driving, target recognition, a plurality of fields such as path planning play the role except browsing function.
