Abstract
In one embodiment, a computing system may display, to a viewer, a virtual surface rendered based on a first mesh of the virtual surface. In response a trigger condition, the system may generate a second mesh for the virtual surface based at least on a distance of the viewer to the virtual surface. The second mesh may include at least one new vertex with respect to the first mesh. The new vertex may be associated with a target position. The system may determine a starting position on the first mesh corresponding to the new vertex of the second mesh. The system may generate a sequence of frames depicting the virtual surface undergoing a progressive transition process using a progressively-changing mesh with a progressively-changing vertex that corresponds to the new vertex. The progressively-changing vertex may progressively move from the starting position to the target position during the progressive transition process.
