Claim:
1. A computer-implemented method for rendering a set of three-dimensional (3D) geometry on a display of a handheld device, the computer-implemented method comprising: determining, based on accelerometer data, a current pose of the display of the handheld device; determining, based on the current pose of the display of the handheld device, a current position of a plane within the 3D geometry; and in response to the current position of the plane within the 3D geometry, rendering an anamorphic 3D image of the 3D geometry on the display of the handheld device, wherein the anamorphic 3D image presents a holographic style image on the display of the handheld device, wherein the holographic style image creates an illusion of at least a first portion of the 3D geometry appearing in 3D space either above or in front of the plane by distorting the first portion of the 3D geometry using an anamorphic projection.
