View Patent ↗A method of manipulating assets on a touch-sensitive display. The method includes showing a camera and a field of view of the camera on the touch-sensitive display. The method further includes detecting contact with the camera or the field of view of the camera on the touch-sensitive display, and manipulating the camera based on a gesture conducted on the camera or the field of view of the camera shown on the touch-sensitive display.
1. A method of displaying items on a touch-sensitive display comprising:
showing a camera icon and a field of view of the camera relative to the camera icon on the touch-sensitive display;
detecting contact with the camera icon or the field of view of the camera on the touch-sensitive display; and
adjusting a position of the camera by tracing a gesture on the camera icon shown on the touch-sensitive display to control the pan, tilt or zoom of the camera.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein showing a camera icon and a field of view of the camera on the touch-sensitive display includes showing a two dimensional map on the touch-sensitive display.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein showing a camera icon and a field of view of the camera on the touch-sensitive display includes showing a three dimensional model on the touch-sensitive display.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying video on the touch-sensitive display that is recorded by the camera.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein displaying video on the touch-sensitive display that is recorded by the camera includes displaying video on an overlay that is generated on the touch-sensitive display.
