Method and apparatus for displaying three-dimensional scenes in virtual reality

摘要

The invention concerns a method for representing a three-dimensional scene on screen, whereby a user can move freely virtually. The inventive method comprises the following steps: (a) creating a three-dimensional geometric support delimiting virtually said three-dimensional scene; (b) generating a texture of said scene from two-dimensional images of the latter; (c) supplying said three-dimensional geometric support and said texture of said three-dimensional scene to a computer tool for three-dimensional representation; (d) applying the texture of said three-dimensional scene on said three-dimensional geometric support using said computer tool for three-dimensional representation; and (e) displaying on the screen an image representing part of said three-dimensional geometric support based on the orientation and position of said user relative to said part of said three-dimensional geometric support displayed on the screen.
