Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for fetching graphics data for rendering a scene presented on a display device. The method includes receiving gaze information for eyes of a user while the user is interacting with the scene. The method includes tracking gestures of the user while the user is interacting with the scene. The method includes identifying a content item in the scene as being a potential focus of interactivity by the user. The method includes processing the gaze information and the gestures of the user to generate a prediction of interaction with the content item by the user. The method includes processing a pre-fetching operation to access and load the graphics data into system memory in anticipation of the user interacting with the content item. In this way, when a prediction of interaction with a content item in the scene is determined based on the game actions (e.g., eye gaze, gestures, etc.) of the user, graphics data associated with the content item can be loaded into the system memory and can be used for further rendering of the content item which can help eliminate delays when the user interacts with the content item in the game scene.
