ABSTRACT:
A User Interface (UI) for a real-time panoramic image correction system and method that simplifies the use of the system for the user. The UI includes a control panel that allows a user to enter meeting table size and shape, camera position and orientation, and the amount of normalization desired (e.g. 0 to 100%). A window can also be implemented on a display that displays the corrected panoramic image. In this window, the head (either normalized or non-normalized) of a meeting participant, preferably one that is speaking, is extracted and displayed in a separate window. Additionally, the corrected panoramic image, whose size will vary in conjunction with the amount of warping applied, can be displayed and transmitted with extra pixels around its perimeter in order to allow the corrected or normalized panoramic image to adapt to any of the standard display size and resolutions and to simplify network transmission. The corrected image can also be transmitted with standard resolutions using non-unity pixel aspect ratios to simply network transmission.
