Hi there,
We have tried all the wide angle module we can find but none of them is wide enough. The reason is not the lens but the video stream we get.
For exemple, on the OAK-FFC IMX378 W, the full sensor FOV is great. But once we use the video stream, it's cropped to 16:9 format and on wide angle camera, it cuts SO MUCH of the FOV !
From (H:108°, V:93°) we get only (H:79.8°, V:50°).
We can try all wide angle sensor out there, if it's cropped, even a little, we lose most of the FOV. For example, on the IMX378 W, sensor is only cropped by 5% horizontally but we lose 25% of the HFOV.
So what we need to achieve is rather getting a binning version of the 4/3 image (from 12 MP to 1 or 2. MP would be enough) to be encoded with H264 and streamed !
Is there a way to achieve that ? Or a particular sensor that allows it ?
I hope you have few idea because we have tried all workaround we thought about.
Best
