What is the difference between panorama and long shot?
4 Answers
The following are the specific differences between panorama and long shot: 1. Performance: Panorama performs better than long shot. 2. Classification: Panorama has more categories than long shot. 3. Focus: Long shot emphasizes deep and broad vision, mainly representing geographical environments, natural landscapes, and open scenes. Panorama displays the full-body image of a character or the complete view of a specific scene. Panorama is a full scene centered on a specific object. Long shot is composed of vast space and various complex objects from a long distance. The following is extended information about panorama and long shot categories: 1. Shot refers to the difference in the range of the subject in the camera viewfinder due to the different distances between the camera and the subject. 2. It can be divided into five types, from near to far: close-up (above the shoulder of the human body), medium close-up (above the chest of the human body), medium shot (above the knee of the human body), panorama (the entire human body and surrounding background), and long shot (the environment where the subject is located).
As a seasoned mechanic with twenty years of experience running a repair shop, let me break down the differences between these two. The panoramic view isn’t the same as a panoramic sunroof—many people confuse the two. It refers to the bird’s-eye view technology created by combining onboard cameras. The 'Yuanjing,' on the other hand, is Geely’s proprietary reverse camera tech. The panoramic system relies on four fisheye lenses (front, rear, left, and right) to stitch together a seamless view, as if the car has four eyes. Yuanjing is just a standard reverse camera with a single lens capturing the rear. The panoramic system not only shows the surroundings but now, in high-end models, can even simulate tire trajectory lines, which is especially helpful for beginners parking. However, retrofitting a panoramic system costs around 7,000 to 8,000 RMB, while a standard reverse camera can be installed for just a little over 1,000 RMB.
I did thorough research on this during my last car modification. The panoramic view system is essentially a multi-camera collaboration setup, with suppliers like Bosch now providing complete solutions to automakers. Products like Yuanjing are single-camera systems independently developed by brands. Hardware-wise, panoramic systems require at least four cameras plus an image processing chip. Retrofitting panoramic systems is particularly expensive - besides hardware, you need to dismantle the dashboard for wiring. Rearview cameras are much simpler, just requiring a camera mounted through a hole in the rear bumper. Panoramic systems with dynamic guide lines are especially useful for narrow garage spaces, as they can accurately display distance from walls.
The experience of picking up and dropping off kids from school is truly profound. My SUV comes with a panoramic camera, which is incredibly useful when the school gate is crowded with electric bikes—I can see on the screen whether the front wheels might hit the curb. My best friend's Geely Vision sedan only has a standard reversing camera, and last time when she helped pick up the kids, she almost scraped the flower bed. The panoramic view can simulate the entire body contour, making it especially friendly for new moms. However, the panoramic system takes a bit longer to activate—it takes about two or three seconds for the image to appear when reversing. Nowadays, many cars come with built-in remote monitoring, which is also quite handy. When I go grocery shopping, I can check the surroundings of my car anytime. Last time, my dog hid inside the car, and I found him using the panoramic function on my phone.
