QooCam Studio is a comprehensive software solution for Kandao QooCam panoramic camera users, offering a wide range of features to enhance and create stunning panoramic imagery. With capabilities such as stabilization, exposure adjustment, depth output, stereoscopic output, stitching, and cropping, this software empowers users to effortlessly produce high-quality panoramic content.
Using the Stabilization Feature
Launch the software and select the "Edit" function.
Import the 360-degree video footage you wish to process.
You can access the entire video or drag the timeline to select the start and end points.
Click the "360" button to view the video in full panorama, with the ability to drag and rotate the angle with the mouse.
Manually adjust the horizontal angle and translation parameters (pan/tilt/flip).
Choose between full stabilization or jitter removal in the stabilization settings.
For batch processing, add the video to the sequence after setting parameters and proceed to set the next file's processing parameters.
After setting the processing parameters, click the "Render" button at the bottom right.
Set the video resolution, format, quality, and output path.
180° 3D Video Processing
When importing 180° 3D footage, the video edges will automatically be cropped to a black frame.
Select different projections and aspect ratios for the video. For VR 180, choose flat projection and a 1:1 ratio; for 3D TV formats, select "Cylinder/Perspective" projection.
Click "Jitter Removal" to enable stabilization.
Click "Render" and proceed to the rendering page.
Choose the video type, format, quality (bitrate), resolution, and output path.
Creating Wide-Angle Images with Refocus
Open QooCam Studio and add a pair of 180° 3D photos with distinct foreground and background elements.
The default viewing mode is 3D flat view. You can switch to mono view by selecting the top "eye" icon.
Choose the projection method (cylinder/perspective) and aspect ratio. Click and drag to adjust the viewing angle and flip to zoom in or out.
Enable the "Refocus" button and click the focus icon.
Click on the image to specify the area to highlight and adjust the refocus intensity.
Click "Render" to output the final image.
To check the relative depth of the photo, select the "Depth" view mode.
To generate a depth 3D map, go to the "Render" page > "Depth Output," select "Yes," and click "Render All." You will then obtain two outputs: depth (EXR/PNG) and output image (JPG/PNG).
