Abstract

The present invention relates to a method, system and related devices for navigating between navigation points of a 3-Dimensional space where said 3-dimensional space comprises a plurality of navigation points. The method according to the present invention comprises the steps of detecting a current viewpoint rotation angle, further determining a degree of agreement of said current viewpoint rotation angle with a navigation point of said plurality of navigation points and subsequently activating a timing mechanism of the viewpoint activation, said timing mechanism comprising a delay for activating said timing mechanism of the viewpoint activation and a duration of an activation period of said timing mechanism at determining a certain degree of agreement of said current viewpoint rotation angle with a navigation point of said plurality of navigation points. The method further comprises the step of determining a degree of agreement of a portion of a viewpoint rotation angle trace with a viewpoint rotation model and adapting said at least one of said delay for activating said timing mechanism of said viewpoint activation and said duration of said activation period of said timing mechan…
