Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for displaying and presenting content. When presenting content in real time, contextual-zoom-focus and/or dynamic-zoom-focus may be placed on selected portions of the content. For example, the content may be zoomed and the selected portions of content may be repositioned to a central area of a display. Additionally, context may be maintained for the selected portions of content by at least partially displaying nearby content. In some cases, portions of content may be displayed in a progressive manner along a selected display path. Accordingly, context for the portions of content may be maintained along the display path. In some cases, placing contextual-zoom-focus and/or dynamic-zoom-focus on portions of content may be animated and the portions of content may perceptively zoom and glide into focus.
