SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING 360 DEGREE VIDEO RECORDING USING MVC

摘要

The present invention provides a system and method for combining asymmetrical camera views from a front racing and a back facing camera. Resizing and quality enhancement techniques are used to bring both front and back camera to same quality. Further, a panoramic mode of from camera and back camera are utilized to create a uniform stitching
