US Patent:

20080158257, Jul 3, 2008

Filed:

Dec 20, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/961242

Inventors:

Robert J. Bobrow - Arlington MA, US
Aaron Mark Helsinger - Somerville MA, US
Michael J. Walczak - Hudson MA, US

International Classification:

G09G 5/00

US Classification:

345629

Abstract:

A data-display system employs a display in which the representations of data objects are caused to move on the display in order to convey information about the represented data objects. In one example, icons in a link-analysis display that represent data objects satisfying a selection criterion are made to execute distinctive motion. In another example, three-dimensional models of moving bodies in whose features components of respective data objects are encoded are projected onto a screen plane, and the resultant values are used to generate the display.

Assignee:

BBN Technologies Corp. - Cambridge MA

International Classification:

G06T 15/00

US Classification:

345419

Abstract:

Systems, apparatus, and methods for displaying volumetric data using motion-based visualization techniques are provided. An apparatus storing computer executable instructions to be executed by a processor, causing the processor to carryout out a method for displaying data with multiple graphical features visually representing portions of the data and to impart motion to a graphical feature relative to a remainder of the volumetric image to highlight the first graphical feature is provided. A method for displaying a volumetric image in which motion is used to highlight a graphical feature visually representing a portion of the volumetric image relative to the remainder of the image is provided. A system for displaying a volumetric image comprising a user interface, a display, a memory for storing graphical data, and a processor that displays a volumetric image with multiple graphical features of the data and imparts motion to a user-identified graphical feature relative to a remainder of the volumetric image to highlight the first graphical feature are provided.
