The paper describes the creation of a street driving simulator for virtual tour. The simulator uses real-time interactive virtual environment technology to immerse visitors in a 3D reconstruction of some main streets of Wuhan. Visitors can sit in and operate the simulator to tour fifty kilometer long streets of the city modeled in high-resolution 3D graphics. In this project supported by City Planning Exhibition Hall of Wuhan a car driving simulator is integrated for visitors virtual tour. This paper presents the challenges associated with realistic replication of driving with special emphasis on street tour simulation. The development and realization of the new simulator and its subsystems are detailed. Equipment, 3-D database, simulation program, and interfacing elements of the simulator are presented.
