US 2015/0029231 A1 · METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR RENDERING A SLIDING OBJECT

Abstract

A method for displaying a virtual momentum or inertia of an object includes detecting a slide operation applied to the object and obtaining information of the slide operation. An initial speed, a first slide direction, and a sliding distance of the object are calculated according to the obtained information after a user ceases applying a slide operation to the object. A slide path of the object is determined according to the calculated initial speed, the calculated first slide direction, and the calculated sliding distance. The object is controlled to continue sliding, subject to an apparent friction and apparent collisions with edges of a display screen, along the determined slide path after the user ceases to apply an actual sliding operation.
