Abstract:
Approaches presented herein enable arranging images in a sequence for displaying based on a locus of a moving object in the images. Specifically, a moving object in a plurality of images is selected and metadata of the plurality of images analyzed to determine a locus of the moving object. The plurality of images is arranged along the locus of the moving object in a display environment. Image parameters may be adjusted according to an image placement along the locus, such as angular tilt and size. A place along the locus may be selected and additional images searched for based on a geo-locational metadata tag. The plurality of images may be a series of video frames or a group of photographs.
