One of the most interesting research areas in virtual reality is how to wander freely in image-based virtual spaces. This paper presents a novel conspherical mosaics based on Concentric Mosaics. With this method, users can wander freely in image-based virtual spaces, furthermore look in all directions. We also make use of the idea of hyperlink to organize the virtual objects in virtual spaces so that users can manipulate them freely.
