Disclosed herein includes a system, a method, and a device for rendering an image through adaptive reprojection. A first reprojection can be performed to generate a portion of a first image of a first view of a virtual space at a first rate. An amount of change from the first view to a second view of the virtual space can be determined. A portion of a second image of the second view of the virtual space can be determined to generate through a second reprojection. The second reprojection can be performed at a second rate to the portion of the second image according to the amount of change from the first view to the second view of the virtual space.

Adaptive shading and reprojection

A system can include a device and a graphics processing unit (GPU). The device can be configured to receive a first image from one or more cameras corresponding to a first view and a second image from the one or more cameras corresponding to a second view. The GPU can include a motion estimator and configured to receive the first image and the second image and be configured to receive the first image and the second image. The motion estimator can be configured to determine first disparity offsets for the first image and second disparity offsets for the second image. The device can be configured to generate, for rendering 3D image using the first image and the second image, a first depth buffer for the first image derived from the first disparity offsets and a second depth buffer for the second image derived from the second disparity offsets.

Systems and methods of rendering real world objects using depth information

The disclosed computer-implemented method may include (1) receiving a first 2D frame depicting an evolving 3D scene and elements in the evolving 3D scene, (2) receiving a second 2D frame depicting the evolving 3D scene and the elements, (3) deriving 2D motion vectors from the first 2D frame and the second 2D frame that each include an estimated offset from coordinates of an element in the first 2D frame to coordinates of the element in the second 2D frame, (4) receiving depth information for the evolving 3D scene, (5) using the 2D motion vectors and the depth information to extrapolate a synthetic 2D frame, and (6) displaying the synthetic 2D frame to a user. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
