Optimized Display Image Rendering - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18736208 titled 'Optimized Display Image Rendering
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a head-mounted display system that can predict the position and view direction of a user's head to reduce latency in presenting images on the display.
- The system includes sensors like accelerometers, cameras, and gyroscopes to detect the user's head position and view direction.
- It calculates the latency required to present an image on the display.
- Based on the predicted head position and view direction, it renders the image before the actual time to reduce latency.
- The system then presents the rendered image on the display.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Utilizes sensors to detect head position and view direction.
- Predicts head movement to reduce latency in image presentation.
- Renders images in advance based on predicted head position and view direction.
Potential Applications:
- Virtual reality gaming.
- Augmented reality applications.
- Training simulations.
Problems Solved:
- Reducing latency in head-mounted display systems.
- Improving user experience in virtual and augmented reality environments.
Benefits:
- Enhanced immersion for users.
- More seamless interaction with virtual environments.
- Improved responsiveness in head-mounted displays.
Commercial Applications: The technology could be used in various industries such as gaming, training, education, and design for enhanced user experiences and improved efficiency.
Prior Art: Prior art related to this technology may include research on latency reduction in virtual reality systems and head-mounted displays.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in sensor technology, rendering algorithms, and latency reduction techniques in virtual and augmented reality systems.
Questions about Head-Mounted Display Systems: 1. How does the system predict the user's head position and view direction? 2. What are the potential challenges in reducing latency in head-mounted display systems?
Original Abstract Submitted
In one example, a head mounted display system includes at least one memory; and at least one processor to execute instructions to: detect a first position and a first view direction of a head of a user based on sensor data generated by at least one of an accelerometer, at least one camera, or a gyroscope at a first point in time; determine a latency associated with a time to cause an image to be presented on the display; determine a predicted position and a predicted view direction of the head of the user at a second point in time based on the latency; render, prior to the second point in time, the image for presentation on the display based on the predicted position and the predicted view direction of the head of the user; and cause the display to present the rendered image.
