3Book: a scalable 3D virtual book

Published:24 April 2004Publication History

ABSTRACT

This paper describes the 3Book, a 3D interactive visualization of a codex book as a component for digital library and information-intensive applications. The 3Book is able to represent books of almost unlimited length, allows users to read large format books, and has features to enhance reading and sensemaking.
