SYSTEMS AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING A THREE PASS RENDERING OF IMAGES

摘要

System and method for producing an intermediate image in three passes is provided. An initial image and a final image are identified, each image comprising an associated depthmap and corresponding to a respective camera pose from a respective angular heading. An intermediate image corresponding to an intermediate camera pose with an intermediate angular heading is rendered. A first intermediate image is rendered at a first opacity based on the final image and the associated final depthmap, a second intermediate image is rendered at a second opacity based on the initial image and the associated initial depthmap, and a third intermediate image is rendered at a third opacity based on the final image and the associated final depthmap. The rendered first, second, and third intermediate images, each of which correspond to the intermediate camera pose with the intermediate angular heading, are overlaid to produce a combined image for display.

1. A machine-implemented method of performing interpolation on a first image and a second image in order to produce an intermediate image, the method comprising:
identifying an initial image and an associated initial depthmap, the initial image corresponding to an initial camera pose with an initial angular heading; identifying a final image and an associated final depthmap, the final image corresponding to a final camera pose with a final angular heading; rendering an intermediate image corresponding to an intermediate camera pose with an intermediate angular heading, the rendering comprising:
rendering a first intermediate image corresponding to the intermediate camera pose with the intermediate angular heading at a first opacity based on the final image and the associated final depthmap;rendering a second intermediate image corresponding to the intermediate camera pose with the intermediate angular heading at a second opacity based on the initial image and the associated initial depthmap;rendering a third intermediate image corresponding to the intermediate camera pose with the intermediate angular heading at a third opacity based on the final image and the associated final depthmap; andoverlaying the rendered first, second, and third intermediate images to produce the intermediate image for display.
