Stabilizing 2d and 3d panoramic videos
I thought I would start a new topic on panoramic video stabilization -- hardware and software -- if for nothing else to keep all my links to this in one place. Videostitch http://www.video-stitch....
Very well done.
What an extremely complicated process.
VideoStitch can do a pretty good job at stabilizing. Does it help or hinder stabilizing in VideoStitch before figuring out camera tracks? If the purpose is to add 3D elements to the movie.
Video editing software needs to understand equirectangular format natively.
I think what is missing from a hardware stabilized video gimbo is a shock absorber. A pole inside a pole connected with a spring calibrated to the weight of the camera. Add a small motor to lift and lower the camera and dampen the movement.
