3D DOCUMENT EDITING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- an input device comprising;
a keypad for inputting text; and
a sensing region configured to sense gestures according to sensing technology;
a virtual reality (VR) device configured to;
display a document including text in a 3D virtual space for viewing by a user;
receive text input to the keypad by the user and display the received text in the document;
receive indications of gestures input to the sensing region of the input device by the user; and
move text areas or text portions of the document forward or backward on a Z axis relative to the document in the 3D virtual space according to the gestures.

Abstract
A 3D document editing system and graphical user interface (GUI) that includes a virtual reality and/or augmented reality device and an input device (e.g., keyboard) that implements sensing technology for detecting gestures by a user. Using the system, portions of a document can be placed at or moved to various Z-depths in a 3D virtual space provided by the VR device to provide 3D effects in the document. The sensing technology may allow the user to make gestures while entering text via a keypad, thus allowing the user to specify 3D effects in the document while typing. The system may also monitor entries made using the keypad, apply rules to the entries to detect particular types of entries such as URLs, and automatically shift the detected types of entries forward or backward on the Z axis relative to the rest of the content in the document.

8. A device, comprising:
-
a controller; and a projector configured to display a document including text in a 3D virtual space for viewing by a user under control of the controller; wherein the controller is configured to; detect a gesture by the user; and move an area or portion of the text in the document forward or backward on a Z axis relative to the document in the 3D virtual space based at least in part on the detected gesture. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
