Morphing a Fisheye to Panorama

Question

Hello :)

Currently I want to code a program that morphs a fisheye image to a panorama image.

I found this really great page about transforming those images with some functions.

http://www.fisheyelens.de/html/pano-def.html (site is in German language)

Has someone of you worked with images and did works beyond resizing, coloring, stretching etc. ?

I'm totally new to work with images and also it's a difficult task.

Because it seems that I have to re arrange every pixel with one of these functions and not

only call one method for the complete picture.

So could you give me a hint on how to use these functions?

I hope it was understandable.

@Gokhul First thanks for the link. But 7 Years to late :) Oculus wasn't even a wet dream back then. What I needed back then was like a reverse fisheye function. For calculating purposes of the given image without angles of the lens. (Color and light calculation of monitors and tvs) I spoke later with a a few people and we came to the same conclusion. There is no solution that just works. You have to consider the lens' specification. At which angle it's created and its other characteristics. Then you could reverse engeneer it. What you posted is nothing les than a panoramic vr player. It paints the image on a 3d sphere and sets the camera in the middle. Rotation is then handled within oculus. But this has nothing todo with my past problem.
