20090083665 | MULTI-STATE UNIFIED PIE USER INTERFACE - A state menu selection system that provides a function control set relating to an active application, maps at least one function from the function control set to at least one input device, and activates a function from the control set upon activation of the corresponding input device. | 03-26-2009 |
20090158214 | System, Method, Apparatus and Computer Program Product for Providing Presentation of Content Items of a Media Collection - An apparatus for providing presentation of content items of a media collection may include a processing element. The processing element may be configured to provide for a rendering of a content item having at least a first attribute and a second attribute, enable a user to access other content items related to the content item by the first attribute using a first scrolling function oriented with respect to a first axis, and enable the user to access further content items related to the content item by the second attribute using a second scrolling function oriented with respect to a second axis. | 06-18-2009 |
20110279445 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRESENTING LOCATION-BASED CONTENT - An approach is provided for rendering content associated with a location-based service. Content is retrieved that is associated with a point on an object identified in the location-based service. The object can be represented by, but is not limited to, a three-dimensional or two-dimensional model or models or by an augmented reality view. A model of the object is retrieved. Rendering of the content is caused, at least in part, on one or more surfaces of the object model in a user interface of the location-based service. | 11-17-2011 |
20110279446 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RENDERING A PERSPECTIVE VIEW OF OBJECTS AND CONTENT RELATED THERETO FOR LOCATION-BASED SERVICES ON MOBILE DEVICE - A method including causing, at least in part, rendering of a perspective view showing one or more objects in a field of view. The method further including retrieving content associated with an object of the one or more objects in the field of view, and causing, at least in part, rendering of a graphic representation relating to the content on a surface of the object visible in the perspective view in a user interface for a location-based service of a mobile device. | 11-17-2011 |
20120240077 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DISPLAYING INTERACTIVE PREVIEW INFORMATION IN A LOCATION-BASED USER INTERFACE - An approach is provided for displaying interactive preview information in a location-based user interface. A content mapping platform determines to render, at a device, a user interface for a location-based service based, at least in part, on a field of view. The content mapping platform determines one or more items outside of the field of view and then determines to render one or more user interface objects in the user interface. The one or more user interface objects present, at least in part, preview information associated with the one or more items. | 09-20-2012 |
20130084012 | METHODS, APPARATUSES, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR RESTRICTING OVERLAY OF AN AUGMENTATION - Methods and apparatuses are provided for restricting overlay of an augmentation. A method may include evaluating a feature space representation of an image for presence of a predefined feature pattern. The method may further include recognizing, based at least in part on the evaluating, that the predefined feature pattern is present in the feature space representation of the image. The method may additionally include, in response to recognizing that the predefined feature pattern is present in the feature space representation of the image, restricting overlay of an augmentation on a portion of the image corresponding to the recognized predefined feature pattern. Corresponding apparatuses are also provided. | 04-04-2013 |
20130173154 | Apparatus, Method and Computer Program for Displaying Points of Interest - An apparatus, method, computer program and user interface where the apparatus includes at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code; wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, enable the apparatus to: display a perspective view of a geographical location at a first scale in a first region of a display; identify a point of interest associated with the geographical location; and display the identified point of interest at a second scale in a second region of the display. | 07-04-2013 |
20150081205 | Apparatus, Method and Computer Program for Displaying Points of Interest - An apparatus, method, computer program and user interface where the apparatus includes at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code; wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, enable the apparatus to: display a perspective view of a geographical location at a first scale in a first region of a display; identify a point of interest associated with the geographical location; and display the identified point of interest at a second scale in a second region of the display. | 03-19-2015 |
