Spherical Video PTZ!

Spherical Video PTZ.

NVIDIA Jetson SoM




Spherical videos provide an immersive experience that lets you explore a scene from all angles. Just like if you were physically present when the moment was captured. This form factor has plenty of useful applications, such as sports and entertainment, live event watching, real-time surveillance, vehicle surround monitoring, and robot teleoperation, among many others.

However, for a spherical video feed to be properly consumed, an equirectangular (2D spherical representation) to rectilinear mapping needs to happen. Otherwise, just cropping the input will result in warped and deformed outputs. This is where Spherical Video PTZ comes into play.

Spherical Video PTZ abstracts all the complexity from these projections and presents a simplified interface to the user. This interface allows you to define an output resolution and then select where in the sphere your region of interest is placed. This is specified through pan (horizontal), tilt (vertical), and zoom controls, which can be updated at any time during execution.


RidgeRun Support

RidgeRun provides support for embedded Linux development for NVIDIA's platforms, specialising in the use of hardware accelerators in multimedia applications. RidgeRun's products take full advantage of the accelerators that NVIDIA exposes to perform transformations on the video streams achieving great performance on complex processes.
