Methods, systems, and computer readable media for controlling presentation and selection of objects that are digital images depicting subjects
First Claim
1. A method for controlling presentation and selection of objects that are digital images depicting subjects, the method comprising:
- presenting, via a presentation device having a screen, a plurality of objects, wherein each of at least one object is associated with at least one other object of the plurality of objects and is a digital image depicting a subject and a portion of the plurality of objects is off-screen;
selecting a first object presented in response to a first selection event associated with the first object;
determining a second object based on a predefined relationship associating the first object with the second object, wherein the second object is at least one of on-screen and off-screen; and
presenting, via the presentation device, the second object on-screen and adjacent to the first object and an indication of the predefined relationship, wherein at least one preceding action of presenting the plurality of objects, selecting the first object, determining a second object, and presenting the second object is performed on at least one electronic hardware component.

Abstract
The subject matter described herein is directed to controlling presentation and selection of objects that are digital images depicting subjects. According to one aspect, a plurality of objects is presented via a presentation device having a screen. Each object is associated with at least one other object of plurality of objects and is a digital image of a subject. A first object presented is selected in response to a first selection event associated with the first object. A second object non-adjacent to the first object is determined based on a predefined relationship associating the first object with the second object, wherein the second object is on-screen or off-screen. The second is presented via the presentation device on-screen and adjacent to the first object in response to the determination. An indication of the predefined relationship is also presented.
