    Fantastic work! This must have some practical applications. I was disappointed not to see a perspectiveless picture of a cube. Could it be used to create clothing patterns on a mannikin? I suppose that existing 3D CAD can do that another way, but it might be a way to reverse engineer a pattern from clothing. Could you create a funky animated sequence by scanning the same thing many times with different lenses and then viewing the pictures in sequence?

    Fun fact: all of these wacky lenses simulated in this video actually exist, and are widely used in manufacturing and inspection! Telecentric(no perspective) lenses are most common and very popular in metrology, but pericentric(seeing more than one side of the object), hypercentric(seeing behind and/or underneath the object), and even wacky combinations with mirrors. This allows you, as a common example, to inspect the cap on a plastic bottle from all sides, at the same time, using the same camera. Above, around the corners, from the side, AND from below!

      My guess is there was some bug with the code mapping angle sensor output to real world position. About the idea I'm betting he was pondering one day what would it take to make a real life ortho camera. I sure have pondered the same but quickly thought it must be impossible. This still baffles me though that it seemed to work so well. How far can you see with the thing? what if you point it a mile away? What if you point it to the moon (assuming there was so super accurate rig to keep it pointed at the same spot on moon surface?

    I knew looking around stuff was impossible, but the way you sold it, im still disappointed by the (overall pretty cool) result lol. It's just.. the camera looks "around" stuff, basically the same way somebody with a selfie stick would look around whatever you are hiding behind. By moving the camera such that it has direct line of sight. In in a way, it doesnt look around anything, at any point in time. It's just that the stationary center of the camera has no direct line of sight.. but the camera does. I think you could have sold this camera differently to make it less disappointing.

      I thought it was going to calculate the view behind an wall by inferring from indirect lighting and shadows, like if you could see a shadow poking out from behind a wall, you might know something is there, and with careful calculations and assumptions you could get more detail. Pretty sure I saw someone working on something like this for "looking" around a corner in a corridor.

    So fun fact, most images you have seen of stars from telescopes looked around an obstacle. Newtonian telescopes have two mirrors with the secondary mirror being in the middle of the of the scope's fov but when well focused it doesn't appear in the final image.

    • @urgay1992
      @urgay1992 20 часов назад

      You can also just buy catadioptric telephoto lenses for normal digital cameras that work on a similar principle. A quirk of them is that out of focus highlights form rings instead of spheres because of the ring shaped aperture.

    • @NovemberIGSnow
      @NovemberIGSnow 14 часов назад +3

      Another fun fact: If you cover the bottom half of a regular camera lens, it will still capture the full field of view. This is because even though the obstruction is blocking 50% of the light going to the lens, all of the light rays are still able to find paths to the detector through the uncovered half of the lens.
      This is in principle the same thing that happens with the secondary mirror in telescopes. The secondary mirror blocks a portion of the incoming light, but there are a bunch of other paths for the light to take that will hit the primary mirror.

      Basic shapes are easy to draw (or 3D render) with varying perspective anyway. The point of making a camera that can do this is so you can play with perspective in "real" (complex) scenes.
      Anyway, this isn't new. Search for "Hypercentric optics: A camera lens that can see behind objects" for a video published by Applied Science a few years ago (smaller lens, but it's the same principle and works in real time).

    That’s absolute insane. I work in the film industry and engineering and this it’s probably one of the most exciting thing in camera tech I’ve ever seen. I didn’t know it’s even possible to simulate lenses like this. Feels truly like a 3-D program. And even there I’ve only seen an autographic view not all the other crazy creative ideas. I can’t imagine how absolutely insane it would be to have this in high resolution with proper RGB read out. And then a proper photo campaign shot on it. Congratulations to this absolute insane achievement
    The only other absolute insane engineering. I’ve seen a few years ago, was a camera that’s basically reverse ray-tracing the light rays, and therefore can really look around corners and in other rooms without even being there. But seeing you engineering everything yourself from the software to the hardware and everything else is absolutely insane.
    After seeing your concept, I wonder if it’s possible to kind of use the same concept, if you have multiple images/photographs, undistort, account for their sensor size, and focal length and triangulate them, so you get their position in space, and then later, on the software side, fill in the blanks in kind of like a reproprojection setup to achieve basically the same as you did, but without having to have kind of like motion control rig. What’s what probably result in some that pixels probably could also work even though they’re not all on the same depth axes
    As a sidenote, it would be super interesting to know more about the hardware you used, I saw an Arduino but more insights about your tech stack and the math that’s making it possible would be super interesting

    This is an incredible camera and you've only shown us a few of things it can do; it's a virtual lens on a human-sized sensor. In a way, this reverses much of what digital sensors have been doing for decades; their pixels get smaller and their lenses focus light onto smaller areas to fit into more devices while your camera is a humongous sensor with large virtual pixels. Both strategies require software correction, but for different reasons.

Is the gearshaft not fixed to the rotating pole, how is he unswirling the patterns or is he measuring where the readings were taken. Why is there a bulge in the photo and why is he not fixing it.

      Honestly, as a hobbyist programmer, debugging is just not very fun or interesting. Usually it's something really dumb and simple that you overlooked (like letting the electrical contacts touch by accident), and you go through countless iterations of getting the computer to spit out its data at intermediary steps to follow where it's going wrong. It's already confusing enough as the programmer to debug, and even more difficult to explain your thought process behind it. Most of it will just be fruitless "I spent 5 hours thinking in was a problem with X, when it was a problem with Y."

    So, you basically put a camera on a stick, which is long enough to look behind a small barier the same way you'd put a mirror on a stick to look aroud edges.

    14:00 - MIND. BLOWN. Never seen anything like this! Never even imagined it would be possible. This is cool!
    The funny thing is, the "seeing around objects" stuff at 16:30 is somehow less impressive, as you could really just move any old camera around the object without needing to spin it. But the no-perspective images are so unlike anything our eyes could ever see. I'm seriously impressed!

    As a mech eng. student, I can't stress how cool this is, We just our 2nd year class on sensors and instrumentation and our prof. spoke our heads off on how Impedance amplifiers and active filters work and when you showed a use case for it finally clicked for me (haha, no offence, he was a great prof). I find that eng. students like me often face the struggle of find a project like this to work on. I think the most inspiring thing about this is your ability to take ideas like this and turn them into a crazy-creative project. Definitely kickstarted my brain to try and finding awesome project ideas like this!

    Something cool to try would be to use the full censor of the camera, instead of just a point, save all of the images that it takes, and reconstruct the photo afterwards to use whatever lens / FOV you want.

    There actually are cameras that see around corners. They measure the time it takes photons to bounce off a wall, hit the object, off the wall again, and then hit the detector. Then with tons of math you can get the general shape of an object that’s occluded. The Smithsonian Magazine has an article about it from 2012 if anyone is interested.

    great video, but a small correction for 17:40 Most cameras only have a single sensor per pixel, and on top of the sensor there is RGB Bayer pattern applied, meaning only some pixel see red, some green and some see blue. The final image is an interpolation of the data from each filter.

      Camera on a stick can look around things, but this is the only camera that can look around things with a perspective that looks like you're looking directly _through_ the obstruction. Notice how he's centered in the image, and you're not looking at him from the side. No other camera can do that.

    Love the camera :)
    Your optics are diffraction-limited, so if acting as a conventional lens, a touch of super-resolution should be trivial. This is essentially accomplished by deconvolving the image with the point spread function.
    But... for the Orthographic Photo, the point spread function depends on distance. So wherever you have contrast the point spread function can be detected and the distance can be calculated. So in short, you have a depth camera that can detect the distance of edges. That image would be awesome.
    To detect the point spread is relatively easy - it's a Gauss function with height proportional to the Laplacian of the image.
