A method and system for creating a transition between a first scene and a second scene on a computer system display, simulating motion. The method includes determining a transformation that maps the first scene into the second scene. Motion between the scenes is simulated by displaying transitional images that include a transitional scene based on a transitional object in the first scene and in the second scene. The rendering of the transitional object evolves according to specified transitional parameters as the transitional images are displayed. A viewer receives a sense of the connectedness of the scenes from the transitional images. Virtual tours of broad areas, such as cityscapes, can be created using inter-scene transitions among a complex network of pairs of scenes.

Cette invention concerne un procédé et un système permettant de créer, sur un écran d'ordinateur et entre une première et une seconde scènes, une transition qui simule le mouvement. Le procédé consiste à déterminer une transformation permettant de reporter la première scène sur la seconde scène. Pour simuler le mouvement entre les scènes, on affiche des images de transition comprenant une scène de transition basée sur un objet de transition dans la première et la seconde scène. Le rendu de l'objet de transition évolue selon des paramètres de transition spécifiés au fur et à mesure que s'affichent les images de transition. L'observateur ressent une impression d'interedépendance des scènes à partir des images de transition. Il est ainsi possible de créer des visites virtuelles de vastes zones, telles que des panoramas urbains, au moyen de transitions inter-scènes parmi un réseau complexe de paires de scènes.
