Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for browsing objects organized in a hierarchy using a three-dimensional user interface. Some embodiments of the present technology involve a platform that renders an interface that represents objects that are hierarchically connected in three-dimensional space and that allows navigation through the hierarchy by moving through the three-dimensional space.

Abstract: A system and method for fast rendering of three dimensional graphics is presented. The system and method of the present invention renders an object using one or more encapsulated execute buffers. Each execute buffer comprises a vertex pool having a plurality of vertices which together define at least a portion of the object to be rendered. The vertex pool allows a large degree of vertex sharing to occur when rendering that portion of the object defined by the vertex pool and thus reduces the number of vertices that must be processed by a graphic subsystem in order to render that portion of the object. An encapsulated execute buffer also comprises an instruction stream that contains instructions for controlling the execution of the graphic subsystem with respect to the vertex pool so that the graphic subsystem will appropriately process the vertices of the vertex pool and render that portion of the object defined by the vertex pool.
