This is the source code that Paul came up with.
/*
pdb - Offset fisheye for planetariums with a shifted sweet spot.
Essentially just translates the view vector in the plane of the
hemisphere.
*/
case OFFSETFISHEYE_CAMERA:
// Normalised coodinates
x0 = 2.0 * x / (DBL)Frame.Screen_Width - 1.0;
y0 = 2.0 * ((DBL)(Frame.Screen_Height - 1) - y) / (DBL)Frame.Screen_Height
- 1.0;
// If the pixel lies outside the unit circle no ray is traced.
if ((rad = sqrt(x0 * x0 + y0 * y0)) > 1.0)
return(false);
// Fisheye polar coordinates
theta = atan2(y0,x0); // -pi .. pi
phi = 0.5 * rad * Frame.Camera->Angle * M_PI_180; // 0 .. aperture/2
// My own unit vector versions
VNormalize(vd,Frame.Camera->Direction);
VNormalize(vr,Frame.Camera->Right);
VNormalize(vu,Frame.Camera->Up);
V1[0] = sin(phi)*cos(theta) - Frame.Camera->Fish_XOffset;
V1[1] = sin(phi)*sin(theta) - Frame.Camera->Fish_YOffset;
V1[2] = cos(phi);
VLinComb3(Ray->Direction,V1[0],vr,V1[1],vu,V1[2],vd);
initialize_ray_container_state(Ray, true);
break;
I can't compile this myself. Is there any other solution that makes it possible
to create off-axis fisheye projection?
