Abstract: Digital ink is generated to represent a visual component, such as a letter, number, character, and/or other symbol. The digital ink is generated by obtaining multiple different curves that combine to generate the visual component. These different curves can have various different characteristics (e.g., different thicknesses) to provide the desired visual component. The combined curves are converted into a set of primitives that make up the parts of the combined curves, and the set of primitives are converted into a digital ink format. Data describing the set of primitives in digital ink format can be stored and subsequently used to display the visual component as digital ink.

Abstract: A system and method that allows a user to view objects in a three-dimensional environment, where one or more of the objects have a data display (e.g., a data billboard, etc.) that shows data about the object. To enhance user experience and to provide relevant contextual data as the user navigates through the three-dimensional environment, the system calculates a location for the user and a location for each object and determines if a relationship between the user frame of reference and each object location satisfies a first criterion. If the first criterion is satisfied, the system is configured to move the data display to the bottom of a viewing area of the three-dimensional environment (e.g. docking the data display to the bottom of the viewing area, etc.). The system may also arrange the data displays in the same order as the objects are perceived by the user in the three-dimensional environment.

Abstract: A user interface enables a user to calibrate the position of a three dimensional model with a real-world environment represented by that model. Using a device's sensor, the device's location and orientation is determined. A video image of the device's environment is displayed on the device's display. The device overlays a representation of an object from a virtual reality model on the video image. The position of the overlaid representation is determined based on the device's location and orientation. In response to user input, the device adjusts a position of the overlaid representation relative to the video image.
