Abstract:
1. An image sensing apparatus comprising: image input means for inputting images; detection means for detecting a plurality of moving positions of said image input means in an image input mode; storage means for storing a plurality of images input by said image input means at said plurality of moving positions, and moving position information corresponding to the plurality of moving positions detected by said detection means; designating means for designating an arbitrary virtual path of a plurality of arbitrary viewpoint positions regardless of a moving locus of said image input means that had been moved in the image input mode and storing the arbitrary virtual path; and image reproducing means, in an image reproducing mode, for successively reproducing images stored in said storage means and locating the reproduced images on the virtual path designated by said designating means and generating images by interpolating the plurality of images stored in said storage means in the case that the images corresponding to positions on the virtual path are not stored in said storage means.
