Abstract
A client device receives a user interface event corresponding to a spline curve associated with an object displayed on a mobile device. The user interface triggers creation of a new spline curve based on computation of a new spline tangent associated with the spline curve and phase space-based dynamics of a new state. A scene graph having state information associated with the new state is maintained. A rendering event triggers repainting of the object associated with the spline curve suing the scene graph.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving a user interface event corresponding to a spline curve associated with an object displayed on a mobile device, wherein the user interface event triggers creation of a new spline curve based on computation of a new spline tangent associated with the spline curve and phase space-based dynamics of a new state;
- maintaining a scene graph having state information associated with the new state of the spline curve;
- receiving a rendering event, the rendering event triggering the repainting of the object associated with the spline curve using the scene graph.
A system, comprising:
- an interface operable to receive a user interface event corresponding to a spline curve associated with an object displayed on a mobile device, wherein the user interface event triggers creation of a new spline curve based on computation of a new spline tangent associated with the spline curve and phase space-based dynamics of a new state;
- a processor operable to maintain a scene graph having state information associated with the new state of the spline curve;
- wherein a rendering event triggers the repainting of the object associated with the spline curve using the scene graph.
An apparatus, comprising:
- means for receiving a user interface event corresponding to a spline curve associated with an objected displayed on a mobile device, wherein the user interface event triggers creation of a new spline curve based on computation of a new spline tangent associated with the spline curve and phase space-based dynamics of a new state;
- means for maintaining a scene graph having state information associated with the new state of the spline curve;
- means for receiving a rendering event, the rendering event triggering the repainting of the object associated with the spline curve using the scene graph.
