An improved video polygon method for combining an image of an object with a virtual scene to produce a composite image with respect to a virtual eyepoint. Two ways are provided to retain realism in the composite image. The motion of the real camera that acquires the image is coordinated with the motion of the virtual eyepoint within the virtual scene. For example, to preserve resolution as the virtual eyepoint approaches the transparent polygon on which the image is textured, the real camera is moved closer to the object. To minimize the flat appearance of the textured transparent polygon as the virtual eyepoint moves azimuthally, the transparent polygon is rotated in tandem with the azimuthal motion of the virtual eyepoint. The coordinates of the eyepoint may be provided to the computer using a 6D mouse such as a virtual camera.

L'invention concerne une méthode de création vidéo par polygone améliorée qui combine l'image d'un objet à une scène virtuelle pour produire une image composite par rapport à un point oculaire virtuel. L'invention divulgue deux procédés permettant de conserver le réalisme de l'image composite. Le déplacement de la caméra réelle, qui saisit l'image, est coordonné au déplacement du point oculaire virtuel à l'intérieur de la scène virtuelle. Par exemple, pour conserver la résolution quand le point oculaire virtuel s'approche du polygone transparent, sur lequel l'image est texturée, la caméra réelle s'approche de l'objet. Pour minimiser l'apparence plate du polygone transparent texturé lorsque le point oculaire virtuel se déplace sur le plan azimutal, le polygone pivote en tandem avec le point oculaire virtuel. Les coordonnées de ce dernier peuvent être transmises à l'ordinateur au moyen d'une souris 6D, telle qu'une caméra virtuelle.
