Questions about 360° Panorama-Photography

Post by oui »

Hi
I did receive today my fist panorama camera with 2 objectives, a cheap model sold initially at Aldi Nord (the initially price was 100 Euro; actual price for returned and verifyed cameras is under 30 Euro including sending within Germany).
Why panorama photography?
I am an engaged bicyclist and will deal some advantages for cyclist through the presentation of places and ways having some great inconvenients :mrgreen: .
But I am totally newbie concerning 360° panorama pictures or videos.
Are you perhaps knowing details at this field (probably more reserved for androidists as for puppyists :lol: ).
My goal would be for exemple to add some marks on the pictures or videos, or to cover the face of persons or car immatriculations number, or add some color lines / forms to delimit some areal etc.
I would also be to crop the videos to avoid certain parts to save time and give certain discretion as well as for better size.
Can linux / puppy help?

I only "glued" individual photos into a panorama in the best program for this - Hugin. The program in PPM, but there seems to be something for 2019. Better to take a fresh Appimage. It works exactly in Fossapup, but I don’t know how in other variants.

Different devices. Different approach.

If you are able to pull a file out of the camera you probably can use any image or video editor.
Can you provide a sample file here, just for fun? I made a short google search for the camera, I would not expect too much from it.

You can find the Hugin-panorama AppImage grey mentioned here, https://github.com/aferrero2707/hugin-a ... continuous. The 2019 version also works under Bionicpup64. Haven't tried the 2020 version. The publisher's website is here, http://hugin.sourceforge.net/

Hi
Thank you very much.
The pictures/videos are presented here:
-pictures:

- videos
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bt5MJs0FHp0

As you see, there a spherical deformations in the raw pictures. more: the parts (view made by objective 1 and objectiv 2 can be side inversed (the nose is after that there where the ears have to be and inversed :mrgreen: ) etc.
And you often will wish that your hand or your helmet have to be visible on the bottom or side of the picture :idea:
This is completely different from panorama pictures made step by step with normal objectives

Weird.
I don't get the single pictures, only the video. But maybe my browser can't display youtube properly.
It looks like this:

The inserted preview at the timeline shows properly.
Have fun playing with your new toy!
