SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DISPLAYING, VIEWING AND NAVIGATING THREE DIMENSIONAL REPRESENTATIONS
First Claim
1. A computer program product, the computer program product being tangibly embodied on a computer-readable medium and including executable code that, when executed, is configured to cause a data processing apparatus to:
- display multiple objects in a three dimensional (3D) representation, wherein the multiple objects are visual representations of real objects; and
display a subset of the objects and associated metadata in a shaped lens that is movable within the 3D representation in all three axes, wherein the subset of the objects displayed within the shaped lens are sized larger than the objects outside of the shaped lens.

Abstract
A computer program product is tangibly embodied on a computer-readable medium and includes executable code that, when executed, is configured to cause a data processing apparatus to display multiple objects in a three dimensional (3D) representation, where the multiple objects are visual representations of real objects, and display a subset of the objects and associated metadata in a shaped lens that is movable within the 3D representation in all three axes, where the subset of the objects displayed within the shaped lens are sized larger than the objects outside of the shaped lens.

8. A computer-implemented method executing instructions stored on a computer-readable medium, the method comprising:
-
displaying multiple objects in a three dimensional (3D) representation, wherein the multiple objects are visual representations of real objects; and displaying a subset of the objects and associated metadata in a shaped lens that is movable within the 3D representation in all three axes, wherein the subset of the objects displayed within the shaped lens are sized larger than the objects outside of the shaped lens. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. An apparatus including instructions stored on a computer-readable storage medium and executable by at least one processor, the apparatus comprising:
a rendering engine configured to cause the at least one processor to; display multiple objects in a three dimensional (3D) representation, wherein the multiple objects are visual representations of real objects; and display a subset of the objects and associated metadata in a shaped lens that is movable within the 3D representation in all three axes, wherein the subset of the objects displayed within the shaped lens are sized larger than the objects outside of the shaped lens. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
