Pyramid- and tree-type structures manipulate hierarchical and multi-resolution representations of data and are used in many image processing applications. However, it has been thought that it is difficult to deal with a spherical image by use of a pyramidal data structure. Because, connectedness of such structure is far weaker than a normal square tessellation.<BR>In this paper, we propose a new data structure for spherical image processing on an omni-directional view that is a spherical hexagonal image pyramid. It is composed of hexagonal pixels on a regular polyhedron. Using this data structure, we can represent an omni-directional view in a complete spherical image. And we performed an experiment to extract great circles in a spherical image and to estimate coordinate systems using vanishing points as one of omni-directional image processing applications.
