Re: [hugin-ptx] press notice for the Pannini projection

[dmg]

Hi Tom,

I am just arriving from London. The reception was very good. I was
even asked more than once why
Computational Aesthetics and not SIGGRAPH. Apparently we might have
been the only paper authors
contacted by the NewScientist (regarding the Symposium).

Re: [hugin-ptx] press notice for the Pannini projection

[Tim Nugent]

Great stuff!

Can't get this to work using fast preview (just saw on the wiki that
there are problems here actually) and can't quite get the results I
want with slow preview. Would be nice to get this fixed.

Cheers,

Tim

[hugin-ptx] press notice for the Pannini projection

[Tom Sharpless]

Hi

At the recent International Symposium on Computational Aesthetics in
Graphics, Visualization, and Imaging in London, sponsored by the
Eurographics Association, Dan German presented a research paper on the
Pannini Projection authored by me, Bruno Postle and himself. (http://
vedutismo.net/Pannini/).

Now New Scientist, the British popular science magazine, has done a
short piece on it.  Parts of that are true, others not, or misleading;
but we are content to have been noticed.  And to have had our names
spelled right.  (http://www.newscientist.com/article/
dn19054-18thcentury-painters-give-photography-new-perspective.html).

Cheers, Tom

Hi!

One more: Like FreeBSD, NetBSD wants its man pages in the

case for NetBSD exactly like for FreeBSD to CMakeLists.txt.

Thanks,

Should be fixed in repository.

Re: [hugin-ptx] Problems with photometric optimisation and the final output when translation is nonzero

Hi,

After a little bit more testing I can refine my initial description:  If
the translation parameters are large the optimizer claims there were no
overlapping points -- in case of small Tx, Ty, Tz however, some
optimization is done but the result is awfully wrong.

I chose this clumsy way of getting some proper exposure because the
photometric optimisation wouldn't work after I optimized the
translation.  I do know, though, this is not how it's meant to be done.

Re: [hugin-ptx] hugin-2010.0.0 build issue on NetBSD: "unix" not defined

Hi!

src/hugin1/hugin/config_defaults.h contains the following code:

  #define HUGIN_PT_SCRIPTFILE   "PT_script.txt"

On NetBSD, we want to fall into this case "#elif defined unix" case,

Please change it to

(what operating systems do you want to keep out here?)


   

Fixed in repository.

Re: [hugin-ptx] hugin-2010.0.0 and png-1.4.2

[T. Modes]

Hi,

The vigra library included in hugin-2010.0.0 doesn't compile against
png-1.4.2.
It uses the png_set_gray_1_2_4_to_8() function that was deprecated in
png-1.0.18 (2004) and png-1.2.9 (2006) and removed in png-1.4.0. The
official porting instructions at 
http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/src/libpng-1.2.x-to-1.4.x-summary.txt
recommend replacing it with png_set_expand_gray_1_2_4_to_8().

   
Thanks for the patch, but this issue is already fixed in the mercurial 
repository and will be included in the next release.

[hugin-ptx] Re: [OSX] Hugin 2010.1.0 svn5156 32/64-bit bundle

[Surat]

This version isn't working for me. The preview window shows only black
for the image, the fast preview window freezes the program, clicking
"align" freezes the program, and attempting to stitch a panorama only
goes for a split second before saying "gnumake [image] Error 1". I was
working off of a file saved in Hugin 2010.0, if that makes any
difference.
