Hey guys,

after days and days of headaches trying to understand how the fisheye in OpenCV works, I finally gave up. The documentation is so poor and of bad quality and that's too bad... So you're my only hope to try answering some questions that have been bothering me.

My problem consists of remapping a fisheye image to a new one with (θ, φ) as its axes, according to a spherical model and respecting the distortion. I've been trying so many methodes to achieve it but still can't, everytime something doesn't work. Something so simple should be done easily, apparently not with OpenCV...

Before asking you my questions I would like to read the source code for the fisheye module especially for how the projectPoints() function is programmed because the "detailed" description here is simply not the same as used in projectPoints...

I tried searching the files but I have no idea where to look for it.

Thanks in advance.
