HyperLapse:谷歌街景超平面實驗室平臺是Teehan+Lax Labs 呼叫了Google 街景的資料，做出來一個視覺效果非常有趣的動畫作品 Google Stree View Hyperlapse(意為，超平面)。進入畫面，你會跟隨鏡頭在世界上任意一條公路上賓士，拖拽滑鼠可 360 度拉伸，效果十分暢。

Teehan+Lax Labs 使用的是 Google 街景的資料，而原始碼已經在 Github 上公開了，如果開發者想要使用更高的畫質或者萬更加複雜的鏡頭移動，還可以自己來修改。

這個專案只是 Teehan+Lax Labs 的一個實驗專案，負責人 Jonas 想要通過新興科技來做超平面的視訊。於是他們就使用了 Google 街景的資料。如果想要嘗試，可以訪問這個頁面(需翻牆頁面才能響應)，我剛剛才在香港的屯門公路上走了一趟。你也可以通過下面的視訊一覽 Stree View Hyperlapse 的帶感動畫:

  

Hyper-lapse photography – a technique combining time-lapse and sweeping camera movements typically focused on a point-of-interest – has been a growing trend on video sites. It’s not hard to findstunning examples on Vimeo. Creating them requiresprecision and many hours stitchingtogether photos taken from carefully mapped locations. We aimed at making the process simpler by using Google Street View as an aid, but quickly discovered that it could be used as the source material. It worked so well, we decided to design a very usable UI around our engine and releaseGoogle Street View Hyperlapse.

The site settings are purposely low (like having a maximum of 60 frames per animation) for greater accessibility. However, all the source code isavailable on Github(including examples and documentation) so developers can play with higher frame rates, better image quality, and more complicated camera movements.
