Polyfoils: PART 2Part 2 describes image processing used in Polyfoils, especially oPs. For any document electronically presented in more than two dimensions, optimizing the viewer's visual comfort is critical.The evolution of perception endows document users with performance demands that are not properly addressed incurrent dynamical 3D text processing. This part explains thebackground inventions that make Polyfoil documents pleasant to look at.

In “Solving Screen Text”, the default Polyfoil, oP, is described first. It imposes special demands. An “internal invention” is explained,the Polyfoil rotation method. This is not a standard 3D transformation. It resolves viewer discomfort issues found in watching computer generated rotations. The Polyfoil soluiton has five parts, which together form a method called “StructureFrom Motion.”

In “Rotation & Glyph Processing” algorithms used in Polyfoil rotations are described. These programs nest functions toaccomplish their output. Perspectivized glyphs, a key toconsistent 3D Polyfoil documents, are also explained.

Polyfoils are realPolyfoil Document Processing Patent Pending Application 62264325 is a 162 page patent, with 70 pages of images & flowcharts. It demonstrates a new way to structure and format electronic documents. Because of novelty, and broad importance of documents, the invention is both expansive and detailed in depth. Multiple inventions are embedded within it.

oPs, kPs, cPs, mPs, and other Polyfoils, have methods, attributes,objects and functions that engage component inventions within the patent. An overview of key Polyfoils demonstrates this.
