Original Abstract Submitted

In various examples there is a computer-implemented method performed by a rendering device. A depth image is rendered from a 3D model according to a predicted pose. The depth image is divided into a plurality of tiles. An error map is computed comprising, for each tile of the plurality of tiles, a planar deviation error value that represents a geometric complexity of the tile and comprises an extent to which a geometry of the tile deviates from a plane. The error map, or information derived from the error map, is sent to a display device.
