📏 Distance measurement

Camera height above surface (metres)

0 = unknown (measurement off). Set the camera's height above the water / ground, e.g. mast height.

Horizon pitch (°)

Horizon roll (°)

Calibrate if the footage isn't level — nudge until the white horizon line sits on the real water horizon.

Range rings (metres, comma-separated)

Placement

Mast position — fore/aft from centre (m, + = toward bow)

Orientation (° — bow direction rel. to view)

A box-model yacht projected through the same camera, so it sits at true size on the waterline and stays anchored at any zoom (it bends with the projection in little-planet views).

🌐 Unwrap little-planet source

Open a little-planet / fisheye image to unwrap

…or drag an image onto the viewer. Then enable unwrap and align the centre + horizon below.

Centre = nadir (straight down), horizon ring = the level plane. Aim: real horizon on the ring, scene centred on the disc. The sky outside the ring is whatever the source painted there.

The Panoblu unit, projected through the same camera as the pano (real glass + plastics), anchored at the nadir. It tracks at any zoom, including little-planet.
