Abstract
Techniques described herein include graphically representing mathematical functions or operators in a mixed or virtual reality display device. The graphical representations may be moved around in a virtual reality space that includes displayed source material, such as data. If the graphical representations are located along a line of sight from a virtual location of a user of the mixed or virtual reality display device to the displayed source data, then the mathematical functions or operators represented by the graphical representations are applied to the displayed source data. Results may be displayed on the graphical representation virtually located closest to the virtual location of the user. Techniques described herein allow for simultaneous collaboration among mixed or virtual reality display devices of multiple users interacting with the graphical representations in the virtual reality space.
