Abstract
An augmented reality display system used to diminish (for example, obscure, obfuscate, hide, make less distracting, block out, 'white wash' and/or make less discernible) certain portions of a base image (for example, a user's view of a part of the real world as seen through eyeglasses). Some examples of visual subject matter that can be diminished include: (i) driver distraction phenomena; (ii) advertising; and/or (iii) subject matter the user is not authorized to view.
