VidPanos

VidPanos is an advanced tool that transforms casual panning videos into immersive, panoramic video experiences. Unlike traditional panoramic stitching, which works only for static scenes, VidPanos captures dynamic scenes with moving objects and flowing elements like water. By using a novel space-time outpainting technique, VidPanos expands the video beyond the original camera frame, creating a seamless wide-angle view as if captured by a panoramic camera.

VidPanos employs sophisticated temporal coarse-to-fine processing and spatial aggregation strategies to ensure high-quality, cohesive panoramas. These techniques downsample the video over time and space, refining and merging content through a generative model, and then gradually upscale the scene for detailed resolution. VidPanos excels at blending moving and static elements for realistic, cohesive panoramas, offering content creators a powerful way to showcase immersive, extended video views.

Key Features:

• Dynamic Panoramic Video Creation: Transforms panning videos into continuous panoramas that capture moving objects and fluid motion.

• Space-Time Outpainting: Fills in missing parts using generative outpainting, creating a realistic, wide-angle scene.

• Temporal Coarse-to-Fine Refinement: Refines video frames over time to maintain detail while enhancing video length and scope.

• Spatial Aggregation: Uses overlapping sliding windows and probabilistic interpolation to ensure spatial consistency across frames.

• Realistic Motion Consistency: Maintains fluid motion for moving subjects, achieving lifelike panoramas that traditional methods cannot capture.

Use Cases:

• Travel & Adventure Content: Capture expansive landscapes with seamless movement, perfect for dynamic scenes like rivers, cityscapes, and nature.

• Event Documentation: Produce immersive video panoramas for event videos where people and objects move throughout the scene.

• Social Media & Marketing: Engage viewers with compelling, wide-angle videos that offer an elevated sense of place and depth.

With VidPanos, creators can transform simple panning shots into captivating panoramic videos, offering a next-level tool for immersive storytelling and visual engagement.
