Abstract

A system comprising a camera and a computing device. The camera may comprise (a) a plurality of capture devices configured to capture images of an environment surrounding the camera to provide a spherical field of view and (b) a first interface. The computing device may comprise (a) a processor and (b) a second interface. The camera may be configured to encode a plurality of video streams based on the captured images. The first interface may be configured to transfer the plurality of video streams to the second interface. The processor may perform a stitching operation on the plurality of video streams to generate a single video signal. The stitching operation may be performed on the plurality of video streams in real time as the plurality of video streams are transferred. The single video signal may be configured to represent an omnidirectional view based on the environment surrounding the camera.
