1. A method of displaying data comprising:
- detecting a three-dimensional position, orientation, and manipulation of a device operated by a human guide, in the physical domain, during a processor-implemented game at a first location on a network;
receiving the detected three-dimensional position, orientation, and manipulation of the device at the first location on the network as controller manipulation data;
transmitting the controller manipulation data to a second location on the network; and
displaying, at the second location on the network, the game substantially simultaneously with displaying the three-dimensional position, orientation, and manipulation of a graphic of the device based on the controller manipulation data, wherein the displaying of the three-dimensional position, orientation, and manipulation of the graphic of the device comprises displaying computer-generated hands of the human guide depicting hand positions of the human guide corresponding to the three-dimensional position, orientation, and manipulation of the device.

10. A system for displaying physical domain related information comprising:
-
a controller, at a first location on a network, having user-operable controls; a detector, at the first location on the network, detecting the physical three-dimensional position or three-dimensional orientation of the controller being operated by a human guide; and a processor, in communication with a display at a second location on the network; wherein the processor displays, on a display, a graphic of the three-dimensional position, orientation and manipulation of the user-operable controls of the controller at the first location on the network; and wherein the graphic is overlaid with computer-generated hands of the human guide that depicts hand positions of the human guide corresponding to the three-dimensional position, orientation, and manipulation of the user-operable controls of the controller. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)

14. A method of displaying controller and other information comprising:
-
determining, at a first location on a network, the three-dimensional position or three-dimensional orientation of a controller in a physical domain based on manipulation of controls on the controller by a human guide; rendering, at a second location on the network, a graphic of the controller on a display in response to the determined three-dimensional position, orientation or manipulation of the controller, wherein; the graphic of the controller indicates changes to the three-dimensional position, orientation and manipulation of the controls on the controller; and
the graphic of the controller is overlaid with computer-generated hands of the human guide that depicts hand positions of the human guide corresponding to determined three-dimensional position, orientation, or manipulation of the controller. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
