Comparing with the traditional approach of 3D model-based rendering with explicit 3D structure

the approach of image based modeling and rendering has many advantages

but both fall futile in modeling from one single picture. The method of touring into the picture

proposed by Horry in Siggraph 1997

gives us a surprising way to solve this problem. Our methodology in modeling from one picture can be recognized as an extension to TIP. Based on these extensions on TIP

we consider an image sequence taken with the unknown path of the viewpoint. The path can be a line

curve or a combination of both. Each frame of the sequence is decomposed into sub-images

which are mosaicked into a new texture to be used in the following walking through. Wherever the viewpoint is

it can get high-resolution virtual images. The experimental results show that this method is effective and applicable
