Sep 7, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/606175

Inventors:

Leonard P. Steuart III - Purcellville VA, US

International Classification:

H04N 13/02

US Classification:

348 36, 348E13074

Abstract:

The digital 3D/360 camera system is an omnidirectional stereoscopic device for capturing image data that may be used to create a 3-dimensional model for presenting a 3D image, a 3D movie, or 3D animation. The device uses multiple digital cameras, arranged with overlapping fields of view, to capture image data covering an entire 360 scene. The data collected by one, or several, digital 3D/360 camera systems can be used to create a 3D model of a 360 scene by using triangulation of the image data within the overlapping fields of view.
