Abstract
In an example, a method for navigating within a visual representation of a three-dimensional (3D) environment is described. The method includes detecting a selection of a translational input trigger at a translational origin in a translational input region of a user interface. The method includes detecting that the translational input trigger has been moved from the translational origin to a point on a translational control border. The method includes detecting that the translational input trigger has been moved from within the position direct control zone to a location within the position rate control zone. The method includes, responsive to detecting that the translational input trigger has been moved from within the position direct control zone to the location within the position rate control zone, translating the field of view in the visual representation of the 3D environment at a velocity corresponding to the location within the position rate control zone.
