[A] 360-degree video can provide viewers an immersed experience. For example, [a] 360-degree video can provide a viewer with a virtual reality experience, putting the viewer in a virtually different time and/or place. As another example, [a] 360-degree video can provide a viewer with a first-person view of video content captured by a remote device (e.g., an unmanned aerial vehicle, or other device). One method for capturing [a] 360-degree video is to use an omnidirectional camera. Omnidirectional cameras can capture a wide field of view with just a few lenses. The resulting images exhibit a fisheye effect.

CONT

A user experiences a 360° video by rotating the camera about the center as well as in effect rotating the perspective or FOV [field-of-view] while viewing the video. According to an embodiment of the … invention, the camera, or view, is changed based on user input such as by using a mouse, keyboard, mobile device, controller, head-mounted display, or virtual reality headset. In this way, the end user adjusts the view manually or directly. Camera, or view orientation changes provide meaningful insight into how a user experiences a 360° video.

CONT

Examples of virtual content can include spherical videos, 360 photos, augmented reality (AR) content, virtual reality (VR) content, etc. For example, a spherical video can capture a 360-degree view of a scene.

The URCHIN2 underwater video system is a tethered camera system which telemeters video signals to the surface for recording and geo-referencing. The system can be hand deployed to a depth of 100 meters for a variety of marine benthic survey types, including substrate identification, habitat classification, and species enumeration. The name URCHIN is an acronym for "Underwater Reconnaissance for Coastal and Habitat Inventory. "... The current work is primarily focused on testing and documenting the newest version of the URCHIN2 for benthic habitat mapping and classification.... upgrades and testing include the implementation of a benthic positioning system such as "Trackpoint" or "Tracklink, "a slip-ring winch system for cable management, and a Thales Mobile Mapper receiver to provide survey grade positioning.

Le système de vidéo sous-marin URCHIN2 est un système de caméra remorqué qui transmet des signaux vidéo par télémétrie pour qu'ils soient enregistrés et géoréférencés. Le système peut être déployé manuellement à une profondeur de 100 m pour effectuer divers types de relevés benthiques, dont l'identification de substrat, la classification des habitats et le dénombrement des espèces. Le nom URCHIN est l'acronyme de «Underwater Reconnaissance for Coastal and Habitat Inventory» (reconnaissance sous-marine pour l'inventaire de la zone côtière et de l'habitat). [Des] améliorations ont été apportées, dont la mise en œuvre d'un système de localisation pour les fonds marins (tel que Trackpoint ou Tracklink), un treuil à bague collectrice pour les cordages, ainsi qu'un récepteur Thales Mobile Mapper qui permet un positionnement de précision.
