Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for forming composite images. In some implementations, a method is provided. The method includes receiving a set of component images for forming a composite image and defining a first projection for the set of component images corresponding to a first reference frame. The method also includes identifying a plane corresponding to a point of view of the set of component images, where a normal to the plane corresponds to a second reference frame, defining a second projection for the set of component images corresponding to the second reference frame, the second reference frame corresponding to a rotation from the first reference frame defined using the normal of the identified plane, and rendering the composite image according to the second projection.
