Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for rendering a contiguous virtual space for a plurality of display devices. An embodiment operates by identifying a projection of a virtual camera onto a virtual plane and determining a display plane area based on an intersection of the projection of the virtual camera onto the virtual plane. Thereafter, a position for a plurality of virtual windows correlating to a plurality of real-world display devices on the display plane area is calculated based on (i) properties of the display devices and (ii) a focal length of the virtual camera. After placing the virtual windows their respective display plane area positions, content behind a virtual window is identified and provided to the corresponding real-world display device.

Providing a contiguous virtual space for a plurality of display devices

Position based media pipeline systems and methods for volumetric displays provide content to a volumetric display having at least two pixels arranged in a 3D coordinate space. A three-dimensional (3D) pixel position dataset and a 3D animation are provided and a first volume representation based on the 3D animation is created. A second volume is created based on the first volume and including color data. A texture atlas is assembled based on the second volume and volumetric image data is generated based on the texture atlas. The position based media pipeline outputs the volumetric image data to one or more graphic controllers. The volumetric image data can be output whereby a user can preview the volumetric image data in addition to output to the volumetric display.
