3D OBJECT BASED INFORMATION MODEL, INFORMATION NETWORK AND SOCIAL MEDIA

摘要

A method for controlling a user interface capable of displaying digital content is presented. The method comprises: a) associating items of the digital content and metadata related to the items with virtual 3D objects capable of being shown on a display so that a visual expression of three- dimensionality is provided to a user, b) interlinking at least two of said virtual 3D objects by matching the metadata associated with these virtual 3D objects according to given criteria, c) controlling the display to show the interlinked virtual 3D objects, d) determining functionality on the basis of the metadata matching the given criteria and causing the at least two of the virtual 3D objects being interlinked, and e) controlling the user interface to carry out the determined functionality.
