ADAPTIVE SUPER-SAMPLING BASED ON GAZE

Abstract: in one embodiment, a method includes determining a gaze direction of a user wearing a head-mounted device, the head-mounted device having a display configured to output an image having multiple of pixels. the method may further include determining, for each of the multiple pixels, a set of sampling locations based on the gaze direction of the user, the sets of sampling locations of the multiple pixels being a portion of a sampling pattern defined based on the gaze direction of the user. in one embodiment, the method may also include computing, for each of the multiple pixels, a color value for the pixel by sampling a scene according to the set of sampling locations associated with the pixel, generating the image using the color values of the multiple pixels, and outputting the image using the display of the head-mounted device.
