We present a system for exploring large collections of photos in a virtual 3D space. Our system does not assume the photographs are of a single real 3D location, nor that they were taken at the same time. Instead, we organize the photos in themes, such as city streets or skylines, and let users navigate within each theme using intuitive 3D controls that include pan, zoom and rotate. Themes allows us to maintain a coherent semantic meaning to the tour, while visual similarity allows us to create a "being there" impression, as if the images were of a particular location.
We present results on a collection of several millions of images downloaded from Flickr and broken into themes that consist of a few hundred thousands images each. A byproduct of our system is the ability to construct extremely long panoramas, as well as image taxi, a program that generates a virtual tour between a user supplied start and finish images. The system, and its underlying technology can be used in a variety of applications such as games, movies and online virtual 3D spaces like Second Life.

i fully agree with you. often the seams and the color diffences are too obvious. By the way,how many photos from how many angles do you need to create just such an 3 Dimensional space?Who would take so many pictures?
Bin ganz deiner Meinung. Die Übergänge sind gerade bei den Farben und Nähten deutlich. Eine andere Frage ist, wie viele Fotos aus wie vielen perspektiven man für so einen 3D-Raum wie im Video braucht.Kann mir nicht vorstellen, dass jemand so viele Fotos extra dafür schiesst...
I'm sorry the results are not really convincing. The seams are much too obvious to get the impression of a 3-Dimensional space.
Howewer, it's an interesting idea.
Ich finde die Ergebnisse nicht wirklich überzeugend. Die Nähte sind deutlich zu offensichtlich, um das Gefühl zu bekommen, in einem dreidimensionalen Raum zu sein.

Trotzdem eine interessante Sache.
