This paper describes two new three dimensional interface components (The Flow and Circulatory system). These components utilize the depth provided by 3D computer graphics to present complex information in a natural three dimensional form for user interaction. Part of a larger research project with the objective of applying 3D computer graphics to the field of human computer interfaces, this research focuses mainly on the content of the 3D space and how users utilize and interact with that content, rather than physical device related issues. Each of the new 3D interface components is designed for a particular mainstream real world interaction task (eg. web search/browsing activities). In addition to the specific components it introduces the concept of "active 3D interfaces", a new style of interface that presents its data to the user rather than statically waiting for the user to interact with it. Each interface is described in terms of its design, function and performance in user trials. These trials clearly demonstrate the potential for active 3D interfaces in a range of common interaction tasks.
