In this paper, a view interpolation algorithm is proposed to simulate a virtual walk along a street from start position to end position. To simulate a virtual walking view needs to create new appearing scene in the vision-vanishing point and disappearing scene beyond the scope of view. To attain these two aims we use two enhanced position parameters to match pixels of source images and target images. One enhanced position parameter is the angular coordinates of pixels. Another enhanced position parameter is the distances from pixels to the vision-vanishing point. According to the parameter values, pixels beyond the scope of view can be ＂moved＂ out in linear interpolation. Result demonstrates the validity of the algorithm. Another advantage of this algorithm is that the enhanced position parameters are based on real locations and walking distances, so it is also an approach to online virtual tour by satellite maps of virtual globe applications such as Google Earth.展开更多
