Abstract

A mobile communication device that is outfitted with motion detection mechanisms is used to construct a viewport on audio-visual data. As the communication device is moved along a spatial trajectory, the viewport is positioned accordingly. A virtual space can be constructed such that the spatial trajectory is mapped into the virtual space and the user can navigate the virtual space by suitable movement of the communication device. Accordingly, a user can use natural body movements to navigate the virtual space through the viewport.
