Abstract:
Embodiments relate to efficiently viewing data items in a three-dimensional (3D) space. The 3D space includes a curved surface that is concave with respect to a user-controlled viewpoint in the 3D space. The viewpoint is for controlling the direction and location of a rendered view of the 3D space. The data items have respective values associated therewith. The data items are arranged on the surface according to their values so that a user's ease of viewing the data items varies with their values; data items with some values may be arranged to be easier to view by manipulating the view direction than others (e.g., those with lower values). Ease of viewing can stem from how the surface is oriented relative to the viewpoint, the orientation of the curvature of the surface, the orientation of a controlling reference orientation, alignment of the data items on the surface, etc.

Claim (Index 8):
A computing device comprising:\n processing hardware; a display device; and storage hardware storing information to enable the processing hardware to perform a process, the process comprising:\n modeling a 3D space including a viewpoint and graphic items, wherein the viewpoint has a user-controllable direction that can rotate about an axis of rotation at the viewpoint, the axis of rotation having an orientation in the 3D space, the graphic items having respective values of a parameter; and \n arranging the graphic items in the 3D space to form a 3D shape that is concave with respect to the viewpoint, wherein the graphic items are aligned relative to each other according to their respective values, and wherein the alignment is oriented in the 3D space based on the orientation of the axis of rotation.
