Still, as hugin is the central software of this workflow, it is not ignored.Īfter loading the images in hugin, you need to provide information about your camera and lens so hugin can calculate the lens distortion and so on. Because the focus here is set on the entire workflow, it features a kind of „standard“ case of a spherical panorama. There are also a lot of special cases, like panoramic photography using HDR which are not part of this tutorial but requires some more skills in hugin.

Hugin is a powerful tool and the better you know how to handle it, the less problems you will have following a workflow like this. There are a lot of very good tutorial about hugin out there and you should always watch out for them. I will try to keep the tutorial about hugin as short as possible at this point. In my case, I shot 4 picture with -5° tilt, one tilted up by 90° and one down with -90°, all made with a 8mm fisheye lens. After that, the workflow is perfectly the same. Whether you made your pictures with a fisheye or a normal lense matters when configuring hugin. We have our pictures right from the camera, without any work done to it. I will try to describe the steps as closely as possible to the workflow above, with the respective interaction you have to do, an overview about what you will get and how it will look after that step. If you need some help with the basics of panoramic photography, the tutorials on might be helpful for you.

So, let’s get started! You went to the countryside and made some nice looking pictures? You would like to stitch them together to a panorama covering a full sphere? If you don’t know how to shoot pictures in a way that they fit for this purpose, this is not the tutorial for you. Click here to find a mirror of the latest stable versions.

Update (): As the SaladoPlayer or OpenPano projects are both gone, the SaladoConverter is, too. To make you find the used software faster, I got the links collected up here: SaladoConverter - Converting 6 Cube Sides to DeepZoom Cubic - Correct DeepZoom Folder Strukture for SaladoPlayer Gimp - Adding Logo/Watermark to Bottom Cube Side - Correct Bottom Cube Side with Watermark/Logo Gimp - Editing Nadir and Zenith Cube Wall - Correct Bottom + Top Cube Side

Panini - Create "Mirroring Hemisphere" - Image to Patch Bottom Cube Side SaldoConverter - Converting Equirectangular to Cube Sides - 6 Cube Sides in Tiff Format Panini - Open Equirectangular Picture, Look for Errors - If Errors Occur, Another Run in Hugin Hugin - Open Pictures, Settings & Stitch - Equirectangular Picture without correct Nadir So, this is now fully open source: - Software - What happens here - What you get At first, this list also contained some commercial software, but I quickly understood that there was no need for the almost „simple“ tasks they had to do for me. I made this list for myself some time ago simply to not get confused by too many different tools in use. By the way: If you don’t need special software to present your pictures and if you don’t have to stitch a nadir picture you are very likely to be done after step 1, using hugin. Of course this also works for panoramas with a smaller FOV ( Field of View) but I will show the workflow for a full sphere because you are simply in the most trouble doing so.
