Abstract
Methods and systems for reducing or eliminating distortion in an image are described. The approach generally involves determining the distortion introduced by a lens, and modifying a captured image to reduce that distortion. In one embodiment, the distortion information associated with a lens is determined. The distortion information is stored. A captured image taken by that lens is processed, with reference to the distortion information.
