Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes circuitry to register at least a first viewpoint and a second viewpoint designated next to the first viewpoint as viewpoints in a full-view spherical image with an order designated by a user, set a transition path of the viewpoints from the first viewpoint to the second viewpoint by interpolating between the first viewpoint and the second viewpoint in the full-view spherical image, generate a first partial image having a center that matches the first viewpoint, and a second partial image having a center that matches the second viewpoint, and play animation by sequentially displaying the first partial image and the second partial image with the order designated by the user while transiting the viewpoints from the first viewpoint to the second viewpoint along the set transition path.
