System and method for display of panoramic capsule images
Systems and methods are provided for displaying images captured from a panoramic capsule camera system. In one embodiment according to the invention, multiple sub-image sets are generated using a sub-image set window on the panoramic image by cyclically shifting the panoramic image. The multiple sub-image sets are then displayed in multiple display windows. In another embodiment according to the invention, the sub-image set in every other display window is flipped horizontally, vertically or both horizontally and vertically.
1. A method for displaying a sequence of panorama images from a capsule camera system, the method comprising:
accepting a panorama image captured with the capsule camera system;
generating multiple sub-image sets using a sub-image set window on the panoramic image by cyclically shifting the panoramic image; and
displaying said multiple sub-image sets in multiple display windows, wherein each of said multiple display windows is used to display one of said multiple sub-image sets.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sub-image set in every other display window is flipped horizontally, vertically or both horizontally and vertically.
3. A method for displaying a sequence of panorama images from a capsule camera system, the method comprising:
accepting a panorama image captured with the capsule camera system, wherein the panorama image consists of multiple sub-images corresponding to scenes around latitudinal field of view;
generating multiple sub-image sets by cyclically shifting the panoramic image; and
displaying said multiple sub-image sets in multiple display windows, wherein each of said multiple display windows is used to display one of said multiple sub-image sets.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the sub-image set in every other display window is flipped horizontally, vertically or both horizontally and vertically.
5. A system for displaying a sequence of panorama images from a capsule camera system, the system comprising:
an interface to accept a panorama image captured with the capsule camera system, wherein the panorama image consists of multiple sub-images corresponding to scenes around latitudinal field of view;
means for generating multiple sub-image sets by cyclically shifting the panoramic image; and
means for displaying said multiple sub-image sets in multiple display windows, wherein each of said multiple display windows is used to display one of said multiple sub-image sets.
6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the sub-image set in every other display window is flipped horizontally, vertically or both horizontally and vertically.
7. A system for displaying a sequence of panorama images from a capsule camera system, the system comprising:
an interface to accept a panorama image captured with the capsule camera system, wherein the panorama image consists of multiple sub-images corresponding to scenes around latitudinal field of view;
means for generating multiple sub-image sets by cyclically shifting the panoramic image; and
means for displaying said multiple sub-image sets in multiple display windows, wherein each of said multiple display windows is used to display one of said multiple sub-image sets.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the sub-image set in every other display window is flipped horizontally, vertically or both horizontally and vertically.
