1.1.2.3 Image types
1. Double Panorama
In Double Panorama, the panorama image is displayed with distortion correction performed on a 180° image for half of a fisheye image. Note that the center of a fisheye image is a blind spot and it is not displayed in the fisheye image.
2. Panorama
In Panorama, the panorama image is displayed with distortion correction performed on the 180° horizontal angle view part of the center of a fisheye image.
3. Quad PTZ
In the Quad PTZ screen, distortion in 4 fisheye images are corrected and the corrected images are displayed together.
When an image is clicked by the mouse, the clicked position becomes the center of the image (Click & Centering).
The display position of images can also be changed from the fisheye control screen.
Fisheye Control
When the [Fisheye Control] button is clicked on the Quad PTZ or Single PTZ screen, the “Fisheye Control” window is displayed.
From this window, the image position of each screen number can be changed.
By dragging and dropping the number icon on the screen onto the image, you can change the center of the image to where the icon was dropped.
The red number icon is the selected number.
Select the “Refresh interval” value of “Fisheye Control” images from the following.
1s/ 3s/ 5s/ 10s/ 30s/ 60s
4. Single PTZ
In the Single PTZ screen, distortion in 1 fisheye image is corrected and the corrected image is displayed in a 4:3 image.
When the mouse button is used to click on an image, the clicked position of this image can be moved to the center of the image (Click & Centering).
The display position of images can also be changed from the fisheye control screen.
5. Quad stream
In the Quad stream, each of the four 4:3 images that had their distortions corrected are assigned a stream number, and then displayed as H.265 (or H.264) images.
When a Stream(2) is used, the 4 corrected images can be combined together to a single screen image and transmitted.
6. Fisheye
The 360° view is displayed without performing distortion correction as a fisheye image.
