CONTROLLING A THREE-DIMENSIONAL VIRTUAL BROADCAST PRESENTATION
First Claim
1. A method for controlling a three-dimensional virtual broadcast presentation, the method comprising:
- processing two-dimensional satellite images in the context of geographical information in real-time to generate a three-dimensional virtual broadcast presentation;
receiving signals from a control device, wherein;
one or more received signals are respectively associated with motions or attitudes of the control device, each motion or attitude caused by a maneuver of the control device by a user, andone or more received signals are respectively associated with actuation of components of the control device by the user; and
causing manipulations of a view of the three-dimensional virtual broadcast presentation in real-time in response to the received signals, wherein each of the manipulations is based on a received signal.

Abstract
Control of a three-dimensional virtual broadcast presentation is disclosed. The three-dimensional virtual broadcast presentation may be generated based on dynamic information such as traffic information, weather information, or other information that may be featured on a three-dimensional virtual broadcast presentation. A signal generated by a control device maneuvered by a presenter and reflecting positional information of the control device is received. A view of the three-dimensional virtual broadcast presentation is manipulated in response to the received signal, the manipulation of the virtual broadcast presentation at least partially based on positional information of the control device.
