Abstract
An embodiment in accordance with the present invention provides a system and method for a three-dimensional interface for interacting with a database. The three-dimensional interface can include an interactive three-dimensional atlas depicting an element of anatomy, machine, device, or other object. Given the three-dimensional nature of the atlas, a user can zoom in on particular areas to view them with more specificity. Different structural points of the anatomy are labeled with names or coordinates, such that the user can select one of the structural points and search a database for information related to that specific structural point. The user can also use specific keywords to search with respect to the specific structural point selected. The three-dimensional interface and atlas are displayed to the user on a computing device that can either house the database within its memory or alternately communicate with the database over a network.
