Abstract
A method is provided for displaying information from a distance on a monitor. By defining an image plane, the inventive system displays an area of focus of the plane on the monitor while storing the image in short-term memory. When the user selects a subsequent area of focus it is stored in short-term memory also, along with the first area of focus. The user is allowed to toggle between the stored images without having to recapture previously viewed information by retaining subsequent areas of focus in short-term memory. The user can discard, or delete, unwanted areas of focus or choose to move them to permanent memory. It is also possible to organize multiple areas of focus into groups or albums or save them individually.
