Abstract

An MR device may determine whether to perform an operation to blur on the virtual content. A pixel may be sampled, as well several pixels with a vicinity, or predetermined distance, from the sampled pixel. When a threshold number of pixels is used to present the virtual content, a blur operation is performed on the pixels, thus blurring the virtual content, which may cause the virtual content to be at least partially presented as a low-resolution image. Alternatively, when the threshold number of pixels is not used to present the virtual content, the blur operation is not performed, thus minimizing computational processes associated with presenting the virtual content.
