Abstract
Methods and systems for displaying information on or within a three-dimensional (3D) image are described. In an example, a computing device may be configured to determine, based on a two-dimensional (2D) content displayed on a display device, an object depicted in the 2D content. The computing device may be configured to receive information indicative of a request to initiate a three-dimensional (3D) image viewer to view the object in the 3D image viewer. The computing device, accordingly, may be configured to provide rendering information associated with instructions for rendering in the 3D image viewer a 3D image representing a 3D object data model of the object on the display device. The computing device may be configured to provide, in the 3D image viewer, information relating to the object and including at least a portion of the 2D content.
