Abstract

In on the general aspect, a camera rig can include a first tier of images sensors including a first plurality of image sensors where the first plurality of image sensors are arranged in a circular shape and oriented such that a field of view of each of the first plurality of image sensors has an axis perpendicular to a tangent of the circular shape. The camera rig can include a second tier of image sensors including a second plurality of image sensors where the second plurality of image sensors are oriented such that a field of view of each of the second plurality of image sensors has an axis non-parallel to the field of view of each of the first plurality of image sensors.
