Problems solved by technology

[0003] Because 360° requires a wider viewing angle, compared with traditional flat video, panoramic video requires higher resolution, and the bit rate required for encoding is also much higher than traditional flat video, and video encoding The complexity of decoding is also greatly increased
Existing mapping methods are difficult to reduce the bit rate and codec complexity of panoramic video coding, and it is also difficult to guarantee the video quality of the main viewpoint area

Abstract

The invention discloses a panoramic video forward mapping method and a panoramic video de-mapping method, and relates to the field of virtual reality (VR) video. In the present invention, the forward mapping method is based on the main viewpoint and maps areas I, II, and III on the sphere to corresponding areas on the plane, where area I corresponds to the included angle 0° to Z 1 area, area II corresponds to the angle Z 1 ~Z 2 area, area III corresponds to the angle Z 2 ~180° area. The panoramic video forward mapping method maps the spherical surface corresponding to the panoramic image A to the flat square image B; the panoramic video de-mapping method maps the flat square image B back to the spherical surface for rendering and playback. The invention can greatly reduce the resolution of the video, effectively reduce the code rate of panoramic video encoding and the complexity of encoding and decoding, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the encoding code rate and ensuring the video quality of the ROI area.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of virtual reality (VR) video, in particular to a panoramic video mapping method based on a main viewpoint, which can be used for panoramic video and can greatly reduce the quality of the main viewpoint area of ​​the panoramic video under the premise that the quality of the main viewpoint area of ​​the panoramic video remains unchanged. File size and encoding bitrate. Background technique [0002] With the increasing development of virtual reality technology, the demand for virtual reality videos is increasing day by day. Panoramic videos provide a 360° viewing range, however, viewers only watch videos within a certain area for a period of time. In the above cases, the video area watched by the viewer may be called the main viewpoint area, and the main viewpoint area is often only a part of the 360° panoramic video. [0003] Because 360° requires a wider viewing angle, compared with traditional flat video, p...
