A camera system captures an image in a source aspect ratio and applies a transformation to the input image to scale and warp the input image to generate an output image having a target aspect ratio different than the source aspect ratio. The output image has the same field of view as the input image, maintains image resolution, and limits distortion to levels that do not substantially affect the viewing experience. In one embodiment, the output image is non-linearly warped relative to the input image such that a distortion in the output image relative to the input image is greater in a corner region of the output image than a center region of the output image.
A camera, comprising:
A method for transforming images, the method performed by a camera including an image sensor, a display, and one or more physical processors, the image sensor configured to capture a video, the video including video frames having a source aspect ratio, the video frames including pixels located at input positions defined along a first axis and a second axis, the first axis perpendicular to the second axis, the method comprising:
