Claim:
1. A method for three-dimensional (3D) display of two-dimensional (2D) information comprising: receiving a selection input, on an electronic circuit configured for displaying three-dimensional (3D) information on a network device with one or more processors, to display on a display component on the network device a selected set of two-dimensional (2D) display cells (x, y) in a 2D image as 3D display cells (x, y, z) in a 3D image; selecting from the electronic circuit from a non-transitory computer readable medium on the network device the selected set of plurality of 2D display cells (x, y) in a 2D plane a Cartesian coordinate plane including an x-axis and a y-axis; creating from the electronic circuit a plurality of 3D display cells (x, y, z) with a (x, y and z) axis by adding to each of the selected set of 2D display cells (x, y), a plurality of z-axis including a plurality of variable length virtual light source data including a viewing angle and a viewing location along a virtual z-axis for each (x, y) cell in the selected set of 2D display cells (x, y) to appear as though there is a viewing angle and a viewing location along an actual z-axis from an actual light source for an actual 3D image; adding a plurality of space vectors to the plurality of z-axis including a plurality of spatial dimension information comprising depth, angle and time information from a first point (zero) to a second point (n), the depth, angle and time information included as (depth changing from the electronic circuit a length of one or more of the variable virtual light sources for selected ones of the created plurality of 3D display cells (x, y, z) by changing selected data in the plurality of variable length virtual light source data; altering from the electronic circuit the 2D image at (x, y) along a 3D z-axis (x, y, z displaying in real-time from the electronic circuit the converted 3D image on the display component of the network device.
