icov_core 1.0

Core part of the INRIA ADT project ICOV (Interactive Coder for Omnidirectional Videos)
A codec framework to encode and decode your equirectangular 360° images/videos in optimal way. All the source code in this project are meant to be shared publicly.
For more details on the principle, please refer to https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9171593 and https://project.inria.fr/intercom/ .
:wave: You can manage third-party libraries on your own, but if you follow the steps below to build ICOV with the superbuild tool, it should handle everything for you - depending on your operating system, you may need to still install some system packages, so carefully read the build errors as they will probably indicate which package is missing.
:warning: Building the project from source and installing all dependencies will require a significant storage ~9GB
1 - Download source from Gitlab
:rotating_light: If you have any space in your path, the configuration or build of the project will probably fail
2 - Compile The recommended way to compile ICOV is to use the CMake superbuild
3 - Once ICOV is built successfully, move to the bin folder
Equirectangular videos or images can be encoded/decoded with ICOV software.
