A method includes obtaining rendered image data that includes a representation of an object for display using a see-through display. The see-through display permits ambient light from a physical environment through the see-through display. The method includes sensing a plurality of light superposition characteristic values associated with the ambient light that quantifies the ambient light. The method includes determining a plurality of display correction values associated with the electronic device based on the plurality of light superposition characteristic values and predetermined display characteristics of the representation of the object. The method includes generating, from the rendered image data, display data for the see-through display in accordance with the plurality of display correction values in order to satisfy the predetermined display characteristics of the representation of the object within a performance threshold.

Modifying rendered image data based on ambient light from a physical environment

An approach for projecting light may be implemented using a acousto-optical depth switch that uses surface acoustic waves produced along a substrate to guide image light to different areas. The surface acoustic waves may be generated on a substrate using a transducer. Surface acoustic waves of different frequencies can guide image light onto different optical elements at different physical positions. The optical elements may be configured to show objects in an image at different distances from a viewer.
