Abstract

Processing a spherical video using denoising is described. Video content comprising the spherical video is received. Whether a camera geometry or a map projection, or both, used to generate the spherical video is available is then determined. The spherical video is denoised using a first technique responsive to a determination that the camera geometry, the map projection, or both is available. Otherwise, the spherical video is denoised using a second technique. At least some steps of the second technique can be different from steps of the first technique. The denoised spherical video can be encoded for transmission or storage using less data than encoding the spherical video without denoising.
