Abstract

In one implementation, a method of frame rate extrapolation is performed by a device including one or more processors, non-transitory memory, a scene camera, and a display. The method includes capturing, using the scene camera, an image of a scene. The method includes displaying, on the display, the image of the scene at a first time. The method includes generating an extrapolated image by transforming, using the one or more processors, the image of the scene based on movement of the device, wherein the extrapolated image includes a first area including a first plurality of pixels having respective first pixel values based on a single depth and a second area including a second plurality of pixels having respective second pixel values based on a plurality of depths. The method includes displaying, on the display, the extrapolated image at a second time after the first time.
