[hugin-ptx] Headless Hugin - or - Autopano + nona + enblend - hugin

2010-06-04 Thread tetsu yatsu
I've got a project we'd like to use panoramic images for. We have a
big whiteboard at our lab and a spiffy ceiling-mounted ptzcam with
zoom and autofocus. I'd like to take multiple pictures of the white
board at full zoom, stitch them together, and post them to flickr.

I am impressed by how easy it is to create a panorama with Autopano-
SIFT and Hugin, I'd say roughly 10minutes, but I am really looking
for a completely automated solution.

Quality of panorama doesn't matter as much as automatability.



After reading lots of documentation the past two nights, I've come up
with this sequence:

autopano-complete -o panoproject.pto -p 20 *.JPG
nona panoproject.pto -m TIFF_m -o output
enblend output*.tif -o final.tif

but what I get is big grey/brown/black squares surrounded by
transparent alpha borders on the left and right, or very tiny images
that don't realign themselves to eachother, just layer on top of
eachother.

In Hugin, I would use the Align... button first, before running the
nona commands. Is there a step here that does alignment that I'm
missing?

Yes. Autopano only generates control points. Use autooptimiser to set
the image positions.

Between autopano-complete and nona, try this:
autooptimiser -a -l -s -o panoproject.pto panoproject.pto

[hugin-ptx] Hugin parallelization

2010-06-04 Thread Lukáš Jirkovský
Hello,
today I decided to improve the performance of deghosting in hugin.
First try using SSE didn't work really well [1]. Second one using
OpenMP show noticeable increase of performance, because the code can
be parallelized quite easily (the only thing needed is to add two
pragma's) and efficiently (it runs four times faster on my Core i7).

I can see that the most of the threaded code in Hugin uses
boost::thread but I remember that the thread class from wxWidgets was
also mentioned. What should I use? Personally I'd like to avoid
wxWidgets threads because both deghosting_mask and hugin_hdrmerge are
console applications.

Have a nice day,
Lukas

Did you check that your data was properly aligned for use with SSE?

 Second one using

OpenMP show noticeable increase of performance, because the code can
be parallelized quite easily (the only thing needed is to add two

If OpenMP works fine for you, go ahead and use it. When I parallized the 
remapping with boost::thread, OpenMP was not properly supported by gcc, 
but this has changed since then. If you need generic thread support use 
boost::thread, except if it tied to the wxWidgets UI, where wxThreads 
might be more suitable for some tasks.


ciao
 Pablo

I know this was a very simple answer, and someone else asked
relatively the same question at the same time so you may get it a lot,
but that absolutely worked, and I thank you so much!

I feel so powerful now :). The power of panoramography.

[hugin-ptx] Blending-fusing problem when saving as JPG

2010-06-04 Thread brian_ims

I have just noticed a different respoinse when saving a blended-fused image
as a jpg compared to saving it as a tiff

I have uploaded 2 images to 

http://hugin-ptx.googlegroups.com/web/aa_blended_fused+saved
as Tiff.jpg
   and
   
http://hugin-ptx.googlegroups.com/web/aaa_blended_fused+saved as jpg.jpg

that shows the issue using that latest Zoran Windows build with the latest
Enblend/Enfuse. The problem does not appear in a normal stitch or a straight
blended stitch

I guess that this is a bug? 

Cheers

Brian
