Abstract
Traveling has nowadays become a popular activity for people to relaxheir body and mind. Taking photos is then often an inevitable and frequentvent during one’s trip. To satisfy the people’s desire to relive a wonderfulravel they had in their photos, this paper presents a system, Photo Navigator,or enhancing the photo browsing experience by creating a realistic feel tosers in browsing photos as being personally into the scenes and taking arip back in time to revisit the place. The proposed system is characterizedy two main features. First, it better reveals the spatial relations betweenhotos and offers a strong sense of space by taking users to fly into the scenes.econd, it is fully automatic and plausible for normal users to access the 3Dechnologies that are traditionally complex to be manipulated. Our results areompared with those of two other browsing tools, i.e. photo slideshow andicrosoft’s PhotoStory. User studies show that people would comparativelyppreciate the browsing style we proposed to present their traveling photosnd the ease of use for practical applications.
