Methods and systems for interacting with multiple three-dimensional (3D) object data models are provided. An example method may involve receiving a search query comprising a descriptor for an object that is associated with a given category of objects. The method may involve comparing the descriptor to contents of a three-dimensional (3D) object-data-model database that includes contents associated with the given category of objects. Based on the comparison, the method may involve generating a search query result that comprises 3D object data models that describe the object and associated images that describe the object. The method may also involve arranging the 3D object data models and associated images in the search query result in a manner such that the 3D object data models are moveable inline in the search query result, and providing the search query result.

Searching three-dimensional (3D) object data models

Computer-implemented methods for viewing a three-dimensional (3D) object using a web browser having integrated 3D modeling capabilities are provided. In one aspect, a method includes obtaining data of a 3D object via a web browser having integrated 3D modeling capabilities, and displaying, in the web browser, at least a portion of the 3D object based on an initial default view, or a user selected view based on a query received from a user. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.

Methods and systems for encoding and compressing 3D object data models are provided. An example method may involve receiving 3D mesh data for an object that includes geometry coordinates for a surface of the object. Additionally, material properties may be associated with the geometry coordinates. The method may also include identifying multiple portions of the mesh data based on the material properties associated with the geometry coordinates. For example, a given group of adjacent geometry coordinates having common material properties may be identified as a given portion. For at least some of the identified portions of the mesh data, the method may further include encoding information related to an identified portion of the mesh data and compressing the encoded information into a file of compressed geometric data.

Encoding and compressing three-dimensional (3D) object data models

Systems and methods are provided for processing a query at a computer system. The method includes building a query tree based on the query and grouping at least some nodes of the query tree into a group of nodes. Grouping is based on an operator node that is a parent of the at least some nodes. The group of nodes retains the functionality of the operator node but the operator node is eliminated by replacing the operator node with the group of nodes in the query tree. The method also includes traversing the query tree to obtain a result list from a search index that is responsive to the query.

Optimizing search query logic to speed retrieval

Computer-implemented methods for automatically adjusting an opacity of layers in a three-dimensional (3D) object are provided. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a request to display data for a 3D object having a plurality of layers, and providing, for display, data for a view of the 3D object. An opacity of each of the layers of the 3D object in the view is adjusted based on a position of the view of the 3D object. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.

Embodiments of the present invention comprise methods and systems for augmenting machine virtualization by entirely bypassing resource emulation for performance-critical features, such as 3D graphics acceleration, through the use of high-performance interfaces between the guest OS and the host OS. Embodiments of the present invention also comprise methods and systems for ameliorating the performance penalties and functionality restrictions of conventional resource emulation.
