To generate 3-D virtual spaces, the quality of images has become an important issue. In order to generate more realistic virtual spaces, we are developping a new image capturing and generating system. This system includes an automobile equipped with multipul CCD cameras for image capturing and GPS and Gyro for position sensoring. This onboard system produces largescale image data base indexed by positional information, from which images corresponding to the user's location should be able to be displayed properly. At the end of this paper, we also refer to the problem about this methodology in synthesizing a smooth image motion.
