Independent Claim
76 words
A method for providing graphical information in a network environment, the method comprising: receiving a request via a network for a graphical image; rendering said graphical image into a plurality of sub-images, wherein said sub-images are derived from color separations of said graphical image; and displaying said plurality of sub-images on a display via a video buffer wherein said video buffer comprises no more than one of said sub-images in its entirety at any given time.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
76 words
A method for providing graphical information in a network environment, the method comprising: receiving a request via a network for a graphical image; rendering said graphical image into a plurality of sub-images, wherein said sub-images are derived from color separations of said graphical image; and displaying said plurality of sub-images on a display via a video buffer wherein said video buffer comprises no more than one of said sub-images in its entirety at any given time.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein at least one of said plurality of sub-images comprises an interference pattern.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
20 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein said displaying comprises displaying said plurality of sub-images via a computer terminal display.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
17 words
A method according to claim 1 and further comprising sending said plurality of sub-images via said network.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method according to claim 4 wherein said sending also sends an applet for displaying said plurality of sub-images.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
68 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein said receiving comprises receiving said request from a computer terminal connected to said network at a server connected to said network, wherein said rendering is performed at said server, wherein said method further comprises sending said plurality of sub-images to said computer terminal via said network, and wherein said displaying comprises displaying said plurality of sub-images via a computer terminal display.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
102 words
A network-based graphical information system comprising: a computer terminal operative to send a request via a network for a graphical image; and a server operative to receive said request, render said graphical image into a plurality of sub-images, wherein said sub-images are derived from color separations of said graphical image, and send said plurality of sub-images to said computer terminal via said network; and wherein said computer terminal is operative to display said plurality of sub-images on a display via a video buffer wherein said video buffer comprises no more than one of said sub-images in its entirety at any given time.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
102 words
A network-based graphical information system comprising: a computer terminal operative to send a request via a network for a graphical image; and a server operative to receive said request, render said graphical image into a plurality of sub-images, wherein said sub-images are derived from color separations of said graphical image, and send said plurality of sub-images to said computer terminal via said network; and wherein said computer terminal is operative to display said plurality of sub-images on a display via a video buffer wherein said video buffer comprises no more than one of said sub-images in its entirety at any given time.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
26 words
A method according to claim 7 wherein said server also sends an applet for displaying said plurality of sub-images, to said computer terminal via said network.
