Following is a short test video for a project about mapping. My inspiration was the Google Maps Street View, which is a documentation of various cities across the globe. In the program, the user is free to look in any direction, and move along the street as a car would. I was interested in the process of obtaining the photos, and it turns out that a vehicle is equipped with 9 cameras and a GPS. Those photos are then merged to create a cylindrical image that can be navigated by the user.
In my project, I wanted to stitch together two points on the map similar to the way that the different photos are stitched together in Photoshop. The effect is a constant pan, but one that shifts across space and time.
