Abstract
Various aspects of the subject technology relate to prediction of eye movements of a user of a head-mountable display device. Predictive foveated display systems and methods, using the predicted eye movements are also disclosed. Predictive variable focus display systems and methods using the predicted eye movements are also disclosed. Predicting eye movements may include predicting a future gaze location and/or predicting a future vergence plane for the user's eyes, based on the current motion of one or both of the user's eyes. The predicted gaze location may be used to pre-render a foveated display image frame with a high-resolution region at the predicted gaze location. The predicted vergence plane may be used to modify an image plane of a display assembly to mitigate or avoid a vergence/accommodation conflict for the user.
