ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a system and method for displaying and manipulating a multidimensional data set using a computer system. In one embodiment of the invention an input device such as a camera or output from pre-recorded audio-visual data is connected to the computer system. The camera is used to record a data set related to the movement of one or more points on the subject's body. The data set comprises at least 4-dimensions of data and at least one of the dimensions is related to time. The data set is input into the computer and stored in a memory. Three dimensions of the data set are converted into a 3-dimensional perspective data set for display in a display device, and an image is displayed at locations determined by the 3-dimensional perspective data set. The remaining dimensions of the data set which one wishes to display are encoded in an attribute of the displayed images. A selection command is received by the computer system. The selection command selects a portion of the displayed data corresponding to a subset of the data set. A modification signal is received by the computer system. The modification signal modifies data in the subset of the data set.
