User Interface with Parallax Animation
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving an input, the input comprising a velocity and a direction, that is directed to one or more objects displayed on a display device, generating a presentation that includes a parallax animation of the one or more objects; and
displaying the presentation that includes the parallax animation on the display device, the parallax animation displaying such that as the animation nears termination at least one of the one or more object'"'"'s motion appears to dampen.

Abstract
User interface animation techniques are described. In an implementation, an input having a velocity is detected that is directed to one or more objects in a user interface. A visual presentation is generated that is animated so a first object in the user interface moves in parallax with respect to a second object. The presentation is displayed so the first object appears to moves at a rate that corresponds to the velocity.

8. A mobile communications device comprising:
-
a display device having touchscreen functionality; and a user interface module to generate a user interface that includes objects for output on the display device, the user interface module being configured to; generate a presentation of the objects included in a respective one of a plurality of layers based on object type in response to detection of a gesture; and display the presentation including a parallax animation so that a first said layer is exclusively comprised of a text object type and second said layer is exclusively comprised of an image object type, the parallax animation configured to continue after completion of the gesture. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. One or more computer-readable media comprising multiple instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
-
provide, on a mobile communications device, a user interface; generate a presentation for the user interface that includes a parallax animation to follow a gesture comprised of a velocity and direction, the parallax presentation including a plurality of objects in a respective one of a plurality of layers; and display the presentation on a display device of the mobile communications device to include the parallax animation, the parallax animation displaying such that as the animation nears termination a least one of the plurality of object'"'"'s motion appears to dampen. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 18, 19, 20)
