System and method for creating and broadcasting interactive panoramic walk-through applications
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for processing interactive panoramic walk-through content, the system comprising:
- a computer having instructions for executing image modification steps;
a database for storing data, organized on the principle that each object can be parent or child of any other object;
one object may or not be a parent of other objects, and may or not be a child of other objects, wherein image sequences are organised in Route objects and Point objects, and wherein Point objects and Route objects are parents of any image object associated with corresponding geographic coordinates; and
a server with logical device for geostreaming, using a pyramidal structure of classification for the images that allows the progressive download of images from the server for assembly and broadcast.

Abstract
The system and method provides for creating, storing and broadcasting interactive panoramic walk-through applications. The combination of images is determined by the array of possibilities for the user to choose the direction of displacement at each intersection point and from each point or geographical coordinate, to have a complete view from a first person'"'"'s point of view. The system uses geo-streaming methods to optimize broadcast and real-time construction of panoramic applications. The system provides a visual perspective which approaches that of human vision.
