A computer implemented method for warping virtual content includes receiving rendered virtual content data, the rendered virtual content data including a far depth. The method also includes receiving movement data indicating a user movement in a direction orthogonal to an optical axis. The method further includes generating warped rendered virtual content data based on the rendered virtual content data, the far depth, and the movement data.

Mixed reality system with virtual content warping and method of generating virtual content using same

Methods and systems are provided for a reprojection engine for augmented-reality devices. The augmented-reality device projects virtual content within a real-world environment. The augmented-reality device tracks a six degrees of freedom headpose of the augmented-reality device, depth information of the virtual content, motion vectors that correspond to movement of the virtual content, and a color buffer for a reprojection engine. The reprojection engine generates a reprojection of the virtual content defined by an extrapolation of a first frame using the headpose, the depth information, motion vectors, and the color surface data structure. The reprojected virtual content continues to appear as if positioned with the real-world environment regardless of changes in the headpose of the augmented-reality device or motion of the virtual content.
