Overview

Create a new more immersive view of search where results and knowledge are intermingled as opposed to their linear interpretations today in 2d applications.

Anatomy

Here is a diagram of the groups and clusters mixed search is made up of. Search reads from the left starting with a knowledge card and ends with secondary search results at the end. Each result group is plotted along an elongated s-spline

Knowledge Card

This group combines a knowledge snipped of the subject with a 3d polygon and image cluster to ground the search a user queried.

• 3d polygons can com from the poly api hopefully.
• This group should always face toward the viewer(this may suck and cause a lot of collisions but it's worth a shot to make this cooler)

Web Results

The first set of search results are displayed first along the spline. We create custom templates that imitate webpage layouts.

Primary Web Results

Secondary Web Results

Layout

Layouts are randomized and based off of the following content

1. Image
2. Search result title
3. Search result snippet
4. Hyperlink base URL

Card layouts for web results

• Layout A: Tall Header
• Layout B: Wide Header
• Layout C: Tall Inline
• Layout D: Wide Split Header

Collections

Video + Books Cluster

• Videos have a play button overlayed
• Books have randomized z-depths
