Defocus deblurring for catadioptric omnidirectional imaging based on spatially invariant point spread function

The problem of catadioptric omnidirectional imaging defocus blur, which is caused by lens aperture and mirror curvature, becomes more severe when high resolution sensors and large apertures are applied. In order to overcome this problem, a novel method based on computational photography is proposed. Firstly, the defocus blur of catadioptric omnidirectional imaging is analyzed to calculate the point spread function for different scene points. Then, the defocus blur kernel of omnidirectional image is confirmed to be spatially invariant when rotating the focus ring of camera lens during an image’s integration time. Lastly, the deconvolution algorithm using prior sparse derivatives is applied to obtain all-focused/sharp omnidirectional images. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is effective for omnidirectional image deblurring and can be applied to most existing catadioptric omnidirectional imaging systems.
