Abstract:
Techniques are described for, given two images taken at two viewing locations, generating and presenting an image transition sequence that simulates viewer movement between the viewing locations, such as without using information about relative distance between the viewing locations and other depth information to objects in an environment around the viewing locations. The start and end images for an image transition sequence may be part of panorama images acquired at the viewing locations, and generating of the image transition sequence may include selecting and using one of multiple types of transition sequences to perform rotating (e.g., from a start image's viewing direction to face toward the viewing location for the end image), zooming (e.g., to simulate moving forward), and/or blending of the end image with a modified version of the start image, with the resulting image transition sequence played as a video or other animation.

Claim (Index 7):
The computer-implemented method of  claim 5  wherein the first image is a first subset of a starting panorama image that is taken from the first location, and wherein the presenting of the first image by the computing system includes, before displaying of the first image on the client computing device:\n displaying, on the client computing device, a third image from a second subset of the starting panorama image corresponding to a view direction that does not include the view of the second location; \n receiving one or more initial interactions of the user with the displayed second subset, including to change the view direction within the starting panorama image toward the second location; and \n selecting, in response to the one or more initial interactions, the first subset of the starting panorama image based on the changed view direction, and initiating the displaying of the first image on the client computing device.
