Methods and apparatuses are described for intelligent smoothing of 3D alternative reality applications for secondary 2D viewing. A computing device receives a first data set corresponding to a first position of an alternative reality viewing device. The computing device generates a 3D virtual environment for display on the alternative reality viewing device using the first data set, and a 2D rendering of the virtual environment for display on a display device using the first data set. The computing device receives a second data set corresponding to a second position of the alternative reality viewing device after movement of the alternative reality viewing device. The computing device determines whether a difference between the first data set and the second data set is above a threshold. The computing device updates the 2D rendering of the virtual environment on the display device using the second data set, when the difference is above the threshold value.

Intelligent smoothing of 3D alternative reality applications for secondary 2D viewing

A system is provided for visualizing data in a computerized visual environment. The system comprises (i) a viewing device that displays, to a user of the viewing device, a graphical user interface within a virtual three-dimensional space, (ii) a handheld device configured to allow the user to customize the display of a three-dimensional data visualization within the graphical user interface using hand motions made by the user, and (iii) a computing device coupled to the viewing device and the handheld device. The computing device is configured to cause to display to the user on the viewing device a filter plane overlaying the three-dimensional data visualization, detect a position of the filter plane that is movable by the user in the graphical user interface, and alter the three-dimensional visualization in the graphical user interface based on the detected position of the filter plane.
