Class SphereDistorter

java.lang.Object
skyview.geometry.Transformer
skyview.geometry.SphereDistorter
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Component
Direct Known Subclasses:
Besselian, Besselian.BesselianInverse
public abstract class SphereDistorter extends Transformer implements Component
This class defines a non-linear distortion in the image plane. Normally the forward distortion converts from a fiducial projection plane to some distorted coordinates. The reverse distortion transforms from the distorted coordinates back to the fiducial coordinates.

    • inverse

      public abstract SphereDistorter inverse()
      Description copied from class: Transformer
      Get the inverse of the transformation. If the order matters, then the inverse is to be applied after the original transformation. This is primarily an issue with Converters.
