How to remap a fisheye image?


I want to flatten a series of fisheye images by remapping them to a rectinlinear projection.


To achieve this, I need to be able to remap the pixels of the image using fisheye correction formulas for the x-, and y-coordinates. How can I achieve this? I have found this question and this question but I wonder how to use this for fisheye correction.


So far I've tried to use ImageTransformation for this, but I can't get the function to work properly.



  f[pt_] := With[{s = {.5, .5}},
Module[{rd, polarcoor, ru, newcoor},
rd = Norm[pt - s]^2/Norm[s];
polarcoor =
CoordinateTransform[{"Cartesian" -> "Polar", 2}, (pt - s)];
ru = 1*Tan[2*ArcSin[((polarcoor[[1]])/(2*1))]];
CoordinateTransform["Polar" -> "Cartesian", {ru, polarcoor[[2]]}]
]
]
ImageTransformation[image,f]


This should first translate the image coordinates to polar coordinates, then calculate the new r (ru=r undistorted), and than translate these back to cartesian coordinates. The ru = 1*Tan[2*ArcSin[((polarcoor[[1]])/(2*1))]] is based on the above links, with a random value chosen as f. It fi


I get an error message, saying the function doesn't map. Anyone have an idea how to fix this and any further suggestions on how to improve the code?


Example fisheye image


Update 2 22-10-2013 Changed the code to:


image = Import["http://i.stack.imgur.com/JDX9f.jpg"];
r[pt_] := Module[{rd, ru, polarcoor, a},
rd = Norm[pt];
ru = *Transformation formula*
a = ArcTan @@ (pt);

ru {Cos[a], Sin[a]}
]

Using ru = Sqrt[rd]; ImageTransformation[image, r, DataRange -> {{-1, 1}, {-1, 1}}] gives enter image description here


Using ru = ArcTan[rd]; ImageTransformation[image, r, DataRange -> {{-2, 2}, {-2, 2}}] gives enter image description here


Both look like a step in the right direction, with straightened lines, but I got them by trial-and-error so I don't know the correctness.

plotting - How to draw lines between specified dots on ListPlot?

I would like to create a plot where I have unconnected dots and some connected. So far, I have figured out how to draw the dots. My code is the following: ListPlot[{{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4,13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full] I have thought using ListLinePlot command, but I don't know how to specify to the command to draw only selected lines between the dots. Do have any suggestions/hints on how to do that? Thank you. Answer One possibility would be to use Epilog with Line : ListPlot[ {{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4, 13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full, Epilog -> { Line[ ...

dynamic - How can I make a clickable ArrayPlot that returns input?

I would like to create a dynamic ArrayPlot so that the rectangles, when clicked, provide the input. Can I use ArrayPlot for this? Or is there something else I should have to use? Answer ArrayPlot is much more than just a simple array like Grid : it represents a ranged 2D dataset, and its visualization can be finetuned by options like DataReversed and DataRange . These features make it quite complicated to reproduce the same layout and order with Grid . Here I offer AnnotatedArrayPlot which comes in handy when your dataset is more than just a flat 2D array. The dynamic interface allows highlighting individual cells and possibly interacting with them. AnnotatedArrayPlot works the same way as ArrayPlot and accepts the same options plus Enabled , HighlightCoordinates , HighlightStyle and HighlightElementFunction . data = {{Missing["HasSomeMoreData"], GrayLevel[ 1], {RGBColor[0, 1, 1], RGBColor[0, 0, 1], GrayLevel[1]}, RGBColor[0, 1, 0]}, {GrayLevel[0], GrayLevel...

list manipulation - Selecting multiple columns from a matrix?

Sample data: data = { {{2013, 1, 1}, 24.13, 167.67, 231.82}, {{2013, 1, 2}, 32.15, 170.92, 225.99}, {{2013, 1, 3}, 35.43, 172.68, 221.67}, {{2013, 1, 4}, 36.73, 173.05, 218.32}, {{2013, 1, 5}, 58.19, 165.96, 197.05}, {{2013, 1, 6}, 69.99, 163.50, 187.52}, {{2013, 1, 7}, 71.37, 154.21, 175.58}, {{2013, 1, 8}, 72.51, 149.66, 163.25}}; I want a DateListPlot with three graphs, so for a matrix formed by columns 1 and 2, one for columns 1 and 3, and 1 for columns 1 and 4. At the moment I'm using this code: data2 = Transpose[{data[[All, 1]], data[[All, 2]]}]; data3 = Transpose[{data[[All, 1]], data[[All, 3]]}]; data4 = Transpose[{data[[All, 1]], data[[All, 4]]}]; DateListPlot[{data2, data3, data4}, Joined -> True, Filling -> {3 -> {1}}] but I have a hunch that this can be done more efficiently. I don't like the Transpose s in particular. Any ideas? edit (for extra credit) What if I need to multiply the second column by 2, which in my solution is simp...
