Abstract
A method and a device which provide a concise form for cataloging, finding and filtering stored data, being based also on the notation of emotional traits expressed by the data contained in an archive on which the user works. The emotional traits are displayed analogically and topologically by means of a visualization device.
Claims14
A method for generating a visualization structure in the shape of a physical object for displaying, cataloging and searching data, comprising the steps of:
- providing a device having a data archive;
- providing data in the data archive;
- defining, by the device, the data as at least one cataloging parameter wherein each of the at least one cataloging parameters comprises at least one emotional identity;
- associating, by the device, one or more of the at least one cataloging parameters with the data;
- and
- controlling, by the device, the visualization of the data by generating a visualization structure in the shape of a polyhedron comprising the data in a visual, non-textual display that is a graphic representation relative to the at least one emotional identity of the at least one cataloging parameter associated with the data, wherein the data comprises at least one image of a non-textual object;
- wherein at least one of the cataloging parameters comprises an even number of primary parameters and a number of secondary parameters generated by interpolation from said primary parameters, wherein the primary parameters include at least one pair of opposite traits;
- and
- wherein each one of said primary parameters of each one of said pairs of opposite traits is placed on said polyhedron in a fundamental position termed pole which is geometrically opposite to said corresponding opposite primary trait.

A device for the visual display, cataloging and searching of data, comprising:
- a device having a finite amount of data in a data storage archive;
- the data defined byte device as at least one cataloging parameter, each cataloging parameter comprising at least one of an emotional identity, and each cataloging parameter associated with the data;
- and
- a visualization structure included in the device to control the visual representation of the data, the visualization structure in the shape of a polyhedron comprising the data in an emblematic, non-textual, visual display that is a graphic representation of the data relative to the at least one emotional identity of at least one cataloging parameter associated with the data wherein the data comprises at least one image of a non-textual object;
- wherein the at least one cataloging parameters are defined by an even number of primary parameters and a number of secondary parameters generated by interpolation from said primary parameters, wherein the primary parameters include at least one pair of opposite traits;
- and
- wherein each one of said primary parameters of each one of said pairs of opposite traits is placed on said polyhedron in a fundamental position termed pole which is geometrically opposite to said corresponding opposite primary trait.
