Method and system for generating pyramid fisheye lens detail-in-context presentations
First Claim
1. A method for generating a presentation of a region-of-interest in an original image for display on a display screen, comprising:
- establishing a focal region for the region-of-interest at least partially surrounded by a shoulder region;
creating a focal region image for the focal region by scaling the original image within the focal region by a focal region magnification;
creating a shoulder region image for the shoulder region by scaling the original image within the shoulder region by a shoulder region magnification, the shoulder region magnification being less than the focal region magnification; and
, overlaying the focal region image and the shoulder region image on the original image to thereby generate the presentation.

Abstract
A method for generating a presentation of a region-of-interest in an original image for display on a display screen, comprising: establishing a focal region for the region-of-interest at least partially surrounded by a shoulder region; creating a focal region image for the focal region by scaling the original image within the focal region by a focal region magnification; creating a shoulder region image for the shoulder region by scaling the original image within the shoulder region by a shoulder region magnification, the shoulder region magnification being less than the focal region magnification; and, overlaying the focal region image and the shoulder region image on the original image to thereby generate the presentation.

14. A system for generating a presentation of a region-of-interest in an original image for display on a display screen, comprising:
-
a processor coupled to memory and the display screen; and
,modules within the memory and executed by the processor, the modules including;
a module for establishing a focal region for the region-of-interest at least partially surrounded by a shoulder region;
a module for creating a focal region image for the focal region by scaling the original image within the focal region by a focal region magnification;
a module for creating a shoulder region image for the shoulder region by scaling the original image within the shoulder region by a shoulder region magnification, the shoulder region magnification being less than the focal region magnification; and
,a module for overlaying the focal region image and the shoulder region image on the original image to thereby generate the presentation. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
