Google Maps - Switching between Street View Panorama locations smoothly

I have a simple map proof of concept where, similar to maps.google.com I have a slider at the bottom of the page with street views / panos. When you click on the image it takes you to the same street view.

How can I achieve the same kind of transition effect used by google when they transition from one street view to another? Its really smooth avoids a lot of the jerky tile rerendering I'm currently experiencing.

Heres the GitHub Repo if it'll help.

Sometimes these images aren't accurate. If the Street View of your business needs an update, you can: Change the map marker for your business to associate it with different Street View imagery. Or, add your own Street View imagery with the Street View app.

Have you tried maybe making 2 map containers, then load the other one and fade in while fading out the other an toggle back and forth when changing them.
