Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for presenting items on a computer display for selection by a user. A subset of the items is arranged along an arc that stretches across the display, and the items can be scrolled based on user input. The user can select an item displayed along the arc to navigate to a separate display that has information about the selected item. Users can select items for purchase from the various displays.
Claims54
A method of operation in a device to display at least some of a set of user-selectable item icons, the method comprising:
- initially causing a presentation of a first subset of the set of user-selectable item icons on a screen, in which a plurality of the user-selectable item icons comprising the first subset are angularly arrayed along an arc;
- in response to a first scroll input,
- causing a series of iterative presentations of the user-selectable item icons comprising the first subset in which the user-selectable item icons comprising the first subset are presented at a plurality of successive angular positions along the arc in a first direction along the arc;
- and
- as one of the user-selectable item icons that is part of the first subset iterates angularly past a second end of the arc, causing a presentation proximate a first end of the arc of at least a portion of a user-selectable item icon of the set of user-selectable item icons that was not part of the first subset of the set of user-selectable item icons.
A device to display at least some of a set of user-selectable item icons, the device comprising:
- a screen;
- circuitry including at least one processor communicatively coupled to the screen;
- at least one nontransitory processor-readable medium communicatively coupled to the at least one processor and that stores at least one of processor-executable instructions or data which, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to:
- initially cause a presentation of a first subset of the set of user-selectable item icons on a screen, in which a plurality of the user-selectable item icons comprising the first subset are angularly arrayed along an arc;
- in response to a first scroll input,
- cause a series of iterative presentations of the user-selectable item icons comprising the first subset in which the user-selectable item icons comprising the first subset are presented at a plurality of successive angular positions along the arc in a first direction along the arc;
- and
- as one of the user-selectable item icons that is part of the first subset iterates angularly past a second end of the arc, cause a presentation proximate a first end of the arc of at least a portion of a user-selectable item icon of the set of user-selectable item icons that was not part of the first subset.
