Display application and perspective views of virtual space

摘要

A display management resource associated with a mobile device controls display of images on a respective display screen of the mobile device. The display management resource receives location information indicating a location of the mobile device in a geographical region. Additionally, the display management resource receives input from a user operating the mobile device. The input can be any suitable information such as a command to play back images on the display screen of the mobile device. The display management resource maps the input to content such as virtual images such as images associated with an historical event that occurred in the past. Using the virtual images, the display management resource initiates display of a rendition of the virtual images from different perspectives depending on an orientation and location of the mobile device and corresponding display screen.
