Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0062542A1] Computer software (150) and an associated digital camera system (100) for capturing digital wide angle such as hemispherical images, for processing two or more wide angle or hemispherical images to seam the wide angle or hemispherical images together to form a spherical image, for linking sound data files (105), location data (110), time and date data (100b) and horizontal reference data to the captured image data, for selecting for display (175) or for printing (165) undistorted portions of the spherical images (170), for posting the spherical images to a web site (160) or transmitting the spherical images via the Internet (155), for time and date stamping (100b) digital wide angle images as they are captured along with horizontal reference data, location data, for example, from the global positioning system (110), and environmental data.
