  • Publication number: 20080141175
    Abstract: Mobile 3D graphical communication is provided in a communication network for wireless devices. A sender can create and customize a 3D graphical representation that will convey the sender's content, and then provide the animation for the 3D graphical representation locally on a sender device or have a remote server provide the animation. The server provides the animated 3D graphical representation to a recipient device so that the recipient device can render the animated 3D graphical for presentation of the sender's content. Transformation (including transcoding) techniques can be used, by the user devices and/or the server, to change the message (from text to audio, from 3D to 2D, etc., for example) to be consistent with animated 3D graphical presentation capabilities of the user devices and/or to match user preferences. Transformation can be performed prior to or during delivery of the content.
