Thank you!

Camera3D doesn't currently support cylindrical renderings but adding that feature would be an easy change.

Can you tell me more about what you are looking to do? Do you want this to be realtime or rendered in advance?

For a large high resolution cylinder I don't think Processing would be a good choice to do something like this in realtime. Two years ago I was corresponding with someone working on this project:

They were considering Processing so could easily create interactive visualizations. They ultimately used a different framework because they couldn't get a decent framerate. Processing isn't designed to scale in the way that would be necessary to do something like this in realtime.
