Omnidirectional image processing using geodesic metric
Due to distorsions of catadioptric sensors, omnidirectional images can not be treated as classical images. If the equivalence between central catadioptric images and spherical images is now well known and used, spherical analysis often leads to complex methods particularly tricky to employ. In this paper, we propose to derive omnidirectional image treatments by using geodesic metric. We demonstrate that this approach allows to adapt efficiently classical image processing to omnidirectional images.
