Hi Group, I have been playing with generalisations of the stereographic projection. Given a "view sphere" of a 360 panorama, the basic idea is the float around inside that sphere and then project on to either a plane or a cylinder. Conventional perspective comes from projecting from the centre of the sphere, and stereographic from the back, onto a plane. This projection allows projection from anywhere in the sphere in any (meaningful) direction.
First tries at using this at http://www.flickr.com/photos/gawthrop/sets/72157614419442162/ At the moment, it's a mathmap implementation. But I would like to think about putting it in hugin and/or panini. Note that, unlike the Panini projection, the aim is to distort - albeit in a meaningful way. Comments&suggestions appreciated.
