Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3068550
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A system for generating a virtual reality environment applies principles of urban planning. Participants interact with the system by designating or changing certain objects or characteristics of the environment. The environment includes designation of districts having similar scenic characteristics. Paths define routes through the districts and within the environment. Specific foci or landmarks can be identified at locations within the environment. In addition to creating a conceptual view of the environment, the system generates a set of scenes representing movement of a participant along a defined walkway through the environment. The scenes are generated as composite images of objects in a perspective view. The objects forming a composite in the scene are determined based upon the characteristics of the district to which the scene applies.
