Re: [hugin-ptx] Re: What are the keypoints to create 360 panorama ?
I would remove the '--linearmatch' parameter, as this prevents the last image being matched with the first image. (You could try '--multirow' instead, but this shouldn't be necessary) Possibly also removing the 'cpclean' command would help in this case, but I can't test from here. -- Bruno On Mon, 27 May 2024, 11:39 'Wade Wang' wrote: > Could anyone tell me how to convert following workflow into a series of > commands? > > Currently I have tested following commands: > > ``` > > pto_gen -p 0 -f 46 -o project.pto *.jpg # -p 0 : rectlinear > projection type > > cpfind -o project.pto --linearmatch --celeste project.pto > cpclean -o project.pto project.pto > linefind -o project.pto project.pto > autooptimiser -a -p -l -s -o project.pto project.pto > pano_modify --projection=1 --center --straighten --canvas=AUTO --crop=AUTO > -o project.pto project.pto # projection=1:cylindrical > nona -v -z LZW -r ldr -m TIFF_m -o project project.pto > enblend -o final-enblend.jpg project.tif project0001.tif > project0002.tif project0003.tif project0004.tif project0005.tif > project0006.tif project0007.tif project0008.tif project0009.tif > project0010.tif project0011.tif project0012.tif project0013.tif > project0014.tif project0015.tif > > ``` > -- A list of frequently asked questions is available at: http://wiki.panotools.org/Hugin_FAQ --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.

[hugin-ptx] Re: What are the keypoints to create 360 panorama ?
1.I find we can not use --multirow and --linearmatch simultaneously because they are mutually exclusive, then can I achieve my goal (matching only feature points between adjacent images and the last image matching the first image) ? 2.If my workflow is: loading images, with all images having the same initial position, lens type set to normal (rectilinear), HFOV set to 60, feature matching using CPFind + prealigned + celeste, geometric optimization using Position (incremental, start from anchor) first, then using Position and View (y, p, r, v), photometric optimization using Low dynamic range, variable white balance, then fit FOV automatically, projection set to cylindrical, Center, Fit, Straighten, Autocrop, and exporting JPEG images with quality set to 100. How can I convert this workflow into a series of commands and integrate it with Hugin? As far as I know, it seems I can create a new .assistant file in the C:\Program Files\Hugin\share\hugin\data\assistant folder. I already draft part of the commands: ``` [General] Description=360 panorama assistant Help=Assistant for create 360 degree panorama StepCount=4 [Step0] Description=Searching control points Condition=not connected Program=cpfind Arguments=--prealigned --celeste -v --output=%project% %project% [Step1] Description=Check result Condition=not connected Program=checkpto Arguments=%project% [Step2] Description=Optimizing Program=autooptimiser Arguments=-a -p -m -l -s --output=%project% %project% [Step3] Description=Searching for best crop Program=pano_modify Arguments=--canvas=AUTO --straighten --center --crop=AUTO --output=%project% %project% ``` But I don't know how to convert the rest workflow into commands and use it in hugin. 3.I found a difference in the way images are loaded between the two interfaces. If I use the 'Add images' in the expert interface, the initial positions of the images are all in the same place, with the first image covering all the subsequent images. However, if I use the 'Load images' in the simple interface, the images are arranged in two rows. I experimented with both arrangements (i.e., running CPFind and Position incremental optimize afterwards), and found that the first arrangement can produce a correct panorama, while the second one produces a distorted panorama. Is it possible for the 'Load images' button in the simple interface to also place all images' initial positions in the same place?

[hugin-ptx] Re: What are the keypoints to create 360 panorama ?
Great news ! Following T. Modes' instructions, I've successfully stitched these image-sets into panoramas using Hugin, and it truly feels magical ! It seems the keypoint is to optimize position first, and then optimize both position and view. During the process of stitching these panoramas, I've encountered new thoughts and questions: 1. If my input images are in clockwise order and I only want to detect and match keypoints between adjacent images, and the last image also need to match keypoints with the first, how can I achieve this? I noticed a matching strategy called linear match, but it seems can not match the last image's keypoints with the first one. 2. What does 'prealigned' mean in 'CPFind prealigned' ? When should 'prealigned' be used, and is it suitable for the case of creating 360° panorama ? I tried it out, and its matching strategy seems similar to CPFind : [image: hugin-cpfind-prealigned.png] 3.How can I automate the workflow so that I can one-click generate 360° panorama with new image sets in the future? Can this be achieved through a python script or command line? But I've found that my windows computer lacks command line tools of Hugin (e.g. cpfind, PToptimizer, nona etc) and hsi.

Is it due to the image overlapping rate, control points or whatever ? Actually I have tried manually set and check control points, and they looks reasonable, but I don't know why hugin still can not stitch them correctly. The problem is that you optimize the translation parameters for all images. This does not work. The translation parameters should only optimize for single images, but not for all (except you know exactly what you do) I did the follow with this project: 1. Reset all image positions 2. Optimize Geometric: Positions (incremental, starting from anchor) 3. Optimize Geometric: Positions and view (y,pr,rv,) The results looks reasonable then. The field of view of the images is reduced from 60 deg to 46 deg. Not sure if this is related to your attempts or if the initial guess was wrong. I could not check this because your test images does not contain any EXIF data. BTW, does anyone could share the imageset that can be used to create 360 panorama easily with hugin ? E.g. your example set SSARCandy/libray works fine with Hugin.
