Abstract

A method of operation in a near-eye display system includes determining, using an eye tracking component of the near-eye display system, a pose of a user's eye. A shift vector is determined for a magnifier lens of the near-eye display system based on the pose of the user's eye, and the shift vector is communicated to an actuator of the near-eye display system to instruct translation of the magnifier lens relative to the user's eye. After translation of the magnifier lens, an array of elemental images is rendered at a position within a near-eye lightfield frame and communicated for display at a display panel of the near-eye display system.
