SCCM: Spherically Consistent Coarse Matching for ERP Dense Feature Correspondence
Dense feature matching between 360$^\circ$ panoramas underpins omnidirectional pose estimation, 3D reconstruction, and SLAM. Such panoramas are stored in the equirectangular projection (ERP), which unrolls the viewing sphere onto a flat chart and thereby introduces three distinct distortions -- a longitudinal seam (top...
