Patent Images

1. A method of image conversion, the method comprising:

  • extracting, by a processor, a setting from a description file of a virtual pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera used to capture an original image through a wide-angle lens;

    determining, by the processor, based on the extracting, a first set of coordinates of a pixel of the original image for each cell of a sparse conversion map represented as a first look-up table, wherein the sparse conversion map corresponds to a sparse grid of pixels of an output image;

    determining, by the processor, via interpolating the first set of coordinates, a second set of coordinates of a pixel of the original image for each cell of a full conversion map, wherein the second set of coordinates is represented as a second look-up table, wherein the full conversion map corresponds to a full grid of pixels of the output image;

    instructing, by the processor, based on the interpolating, a display to present the output image, wherein the original image is less rectilinear than the output image.
